COSTS OF LEASES.
At a special General Meeting of
the
English Law Society held on 27th January,
1933, the following resolution was passed after
discussion :
" That the Council be requested to
take early action with regard to the
incidence of the costs of a lease, so that
instead of both lessor's and lessee's costs
of a lease falling on the lessee in accord–
ance with
the present practice and
custom, each party shall bear their own
costs.
