Assignee.

ASsignee is he to whom a thing is appointed or as∣signed to be used, paid, or done; and is always such a person who occupres or hath the thing so assigned in his own right, and for himself. And of Assignees there are two sorts, namely, Assignee in Deed, and Assignee in Law.

Assignee in Deed is, when a Lease is granted to a man and his Assignees, or without that word, Assignees, and the Grantee gives, grants, or sells the same Lease to another, he is his As∣signee in Deed. Assignee in Law is every Executor named by the Testator in his Testament. As if a Lease be made to a man and his Assignees (as is aforesaid) and he makes his Executors, and dies without assignment of the Lease to any other; the Executors shall have the Lease, because they are his Assignees in Law. And so it is in o∣ther cases.
