On the contrary, in Bruton court’s understanding of “exclusive possession” was a relative concept. Exclusive possession granted to Mr. Bruton was found based on the fact that he was not required to “share possession with the trust, the Council or anyone else”[13] and “the trust did not retain such control”[14]. Whether the grantor possesses title or not was held to be irrelevant. Nevertheless, since LQHT in fact could not exclude the true owner (i.e. the Council) from taking possession, the exclusive possession enjoyed by the “tenant” would be “only as against the grantor and not the rest of the world”[15] and practically dependent on the contractual relationship. This has received support from later cases applying Bruton. In Islington LBC v Green[16]with similar facts to Bruton, the tenant raised an argument that the
How do you distinguish between a lease and a licence and why might it be important to do so? Is there evidence to show that the distinction is becoming less important?

It does not matter whether the terms ‘licensee’ or ‘tenant’ are used, as it is a matter of substance rather than form. In the present case, there is an agreement that states the duration of the tenancy as being one year and the rent as $1000 per month. Thus certainty of duration is clearly stated. It is therefore a matter of whether the right of exclusive possession has been granted. Here the tenant is entitled to uninterrupted possession for the full

Even with the limitations placed on Ms. Wilde the property still has value, such as selling the property or renting it longer than 30 days at a time. Justice Blackmun in dissenting in the Lucas case, states the “petitioner still can enjoy other attributes of ownership, such as the right to exclude others” (Lucas 1237). Because the property still has economic productivity, albeit with some regulation the ordinance does not invoke a taking.
Facts: This case is in 1970. Having rented apartments, the tenants of the apartment complex discovered numerous housing violations in the building. Because of the extent of the violations and the sub-standard condition they placed the property in, the tenants withheld rent for one month. The landlord sued to recover the rent.

Consistent with Maryland authorities regarding the definition of a landlord, the Restatement (Second) of Property: Landlord and Tenant provides that “[a] landlord-tenant relationship exists only if the landlord transfers the right to possession of the leased property.” Restatement (Second) of Property: Landlord & Tenant § 1.2 (1997) (emphasis added).
