A woman purchased a tract of land from a man by warranty deed. Unbeknownst to the woman, the man was not the actual owner of the tract. The woman built a home on the tract and moved into it. Two years later, the actual owner learned of the man's transaction with the woman and prevented the woman from entering the tract from that point forward. This led to a costly court battle. When the woman notified the man and told him that she thought it was his duty to straighten this out, he ignored her. The statute of limitations for actions on deed covenants is fours years. The woman would succeed in a suit for damages against the man for breach of which of the following covenants of title? - Answer>> C. The covenants of seisin, right to convey, quiet enjoyment, warranty, and further assurances. The woman would succeed in a suit for damages against the man for breach of the covenants of seisin, right to convey, quiet enjoyment, warranty, and further assurances, but not on the covenant against encumbrances. A general warranty deed gives the grantee six covenants of title: the right to seisin, the right to convey, a covenant against encumbrances, the covenant of quiet enjoyment, the covenant of further assurances, and a general warranty. Under the covenants of quiet enjoyment, warranty, and further assurances, the man promised that (i) the woman would not be disturbed in her possession of the tract; (ii) he would defend the woman's title against lawful claims; and (iii) he would perform whatever acts are necessary to perfect the woman's title. Because the man neither owned the tract of land nor was acting as the actual owner's agent, he breached the covenants of seisin and right to convey at the time of the conveyance to the woman. When the actual owner prevented the woman from re-entering the

trial. Without waiting for a discovery request, a party must provide to the other parties copies of insurance agreements under which an insurer might be liable for all or part of any judgment that might be entered. A citizen of State A filed a negligence action against a State B defendant in a State A state court after a traffic accident in State A, seeking $200,000 in damages. The plaintiff immediately served the defendant with process. Fifty-nine days later, the defendant removed the case to federal district court. The plaintiff then timely filed a motion in the federal court to remand the case back to state court. How should the court rule on the plaintiff's motion to remand? - Answer>> B. Grant the motion, because the defendant's notice of removal was not timely. The court should grant the motion to remand the case because the notice of removal was not timely. Under 28 U.S.C. section 1441(a), a defendant can remove an action that could have originally been brought by the plaintiff in the federal courts. Thus, a case that could have invoked subject matter jurisdiction based on either federal question or diversity of citizenship may be removed from state court to federal. However, removal must be sought within 30 days after receipt by or service on that defendant of the initial pleading or summons, or, if the case is not initially removable, within 30 days of the case becoming removable. Additionally, removal based on diversity jurisdiction cannot be had if more than one year has passed since the suit was filed unless bad faith on the part of the plaintiff can be shown. Here, the case was immediately removable, and the defendant should have filed a notice of removal 30 days from receipt of service of process, but he did not do so. The owner of a used car dealership and his business had been under investigation by the IRS for several months because of suspected fraudulent tax returns. In addition, a police detective who had been investigating a stolen car ring uncovered evidence

indicating that the car dealer might be a part of the ring. The detective went to the car lot and found evidence indicating that the ring was operating through there. The car dealer then agreed to accompany the detective to the station to make a statement on the evidence. On the way he voluntarily informed the detective about the fraudulently filed tax returns, because he believed that by revealing these facts he might receive a lighter sentence for his involvement in the stolen car ring. At his trial for filing false tax returns, the car dealer's attorney moved to exclude the statement he made. The best argument for admitting the statement is that: - Answer>> C. The statement was volunteered by the car dealer. The best argument for admitting the statement is that it was volunteered by the car dealer. Generally, Miranda warnings and a valid waiver are prerequisites to the admissibility of any statement made by the accused during custodial interrogation. If the defendant is not in custody, or if the police are not "interrogating" the defendant, Miranda warnings are not required. Thus, the best argument for admitting a statement made by the defendant who had not been provided Miranda warnings must be either that the defendant was not in custody at the time the statement was made or that the statement was not the result of police interrogation (i.e., that the statement was volunteered). A homeowner, a citizen of State A, hired an electrician, a citizen of State B, to fix the wiring in her basement and hired a gas worker, also a citizen of State B, to install a new gas stove in her kitchen. Unfortunately, the home caught fire and burned down while they were both working on their separate jobs. The homeowner sued the gas worker for negligence in federal court in State A, seeking $100,000. The homeowner promptly served the gas worker, and the gas worker timely filed an answer with the court. One month after filing the answer, the gas worker moved to file and serve a third-party complaint against the electrician, alleging that the electrician was the sole cause of the accident.

regard to aliens in this circumstance, and the resolution of the House violates the separation of powers doctrine. The court should find the resolution invalid. While Congress has broad power to delegate, the separation of powers doctrine forbids Congress from trying to control the exercise of the power delegated in various ways, such as by overturning an executive agency action without bicameralism (i.e., passage by both houses of Congress). By enacting the federal law allowing the administrative law judge to enter a final order with regard to aliens, Congress has given up any control it may have had previously in these situations. The resolution by the House here is an unconstitutional legislative veto that violates the separation of powers doctrine. An uncle's will devised his lakefront estate "to my butler for life, remainder to my niece." The 40-acre estate includes a mansion, a 20-acre orchard, a beach, and gardens. At the time of the uncle's death, the butler was 40 years old and of modest means. The niece was 18 years old and quite wealthy. The estate was encumbered by a mortgage that was not entitled to exoneration. After the first year, the butler could no longer make the mortgage payments, so the niece paid them. Ten years after the uncle's death, the town in which the estate was located became a hot resort area. A major resort chain approached the butler with a multimillion-dollar offer for the easternmost 20 acres of the estate, which included the residence and beach. The resort chain planned to raze the mansion to erect a high-rise hotel. The butler approached the niece about the offer. He proposed to give her most of the money from the sale and offer - Answer>> B. Destruction of the mansion constitutes waste.The niece's best argument is that destruction of the residence constitutes waste. The other choices do not present arguments giving her a chance of success. A life tenant is entitled to all ordinary uses and profits of the land, but he cannot lawfully do any act that would injure the interests of the remainderman. A

grantor intends that the life tenant have the general use of the land in a reasonable manner, but that the land pass to the owner of the remainder, as nearly as practicable, unimpaired in its nature, character, and improvements. Even ameliorative waste, which actually increases the value of the land, is actionable if there is no reasonable justification for the change. A life tenant can substantially alter or even demolish existing buildings if (i) the market value of the future interests is not diminished and either (ii) the remainderman does not object, or (iii) a substantial and permanent change in the neighborhood conditions has deprived the property in its current form of reasonable productivity or usefulness. Here, the market value of the property would not be diminished. The remainderman (the niece), however, is objecting, making option (ii) unavailable. Furthermore, although the neighboring properties have been sold for hotels and resorts, it does not necessarily follow that the conditions have changed to such a degree that the estate should be similarly converted. The property is large enough to be somewhat isolated from the changes in the surrounding areas; thus, despite the surrounding hotels, an owner could still enjoy the land as a private residence, orchard, and beach. Therefore, the property is still useful and option (iii) is also unavailable. In this case, the life tenant's desire to raze the mansion is not because the changes in the neighborh A locksmith knew that his friend had been having marital troubles. The friend had told the locksmith that he suspected his wife was having an affair with his rival. One afternoon, the friend, visibly upset, asked to borrow some of the locksmith's tools, telling him that he knew that his rival was going to meet up with his wife later that day. The locksmith gave his friend the tools, advising him not to do anything that he would regret later. The friend stated that it would be others who would have regrets. The friend went to his rival's apartment and picked the door lock with the locksmith's tools. He found his wife and rival in bed together. The friend stabbed his rival, seriously wounding him. A few minutes later the

may be granted if, from the pleadings, affidavits, and discovery materials, it appears that there is no genuine dispute of material fact and the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. The court may not decide disputed fact issues on a motion for summary judgment; if there is a genuinely disputed material fact (meaning a dispute backed by evidence on both sides of the issue), the case must go to trial. Here, although the plaintiff's case may seem stronger, the defendant has presented some evidence showing that she was not negligent. Thus, the case must proceed to trial. A mother's will left her farm to her son and daughter "jointly, as tenants in common." The son and the daughter, having had no interest in farming, had long since moved to a large city about 150 miles from the farm. However, after the mother's death the son decided to move back to the farm. The son rented various parts of the farm to sharecroppers and regularly sent half of any profits from the farm to the daughter. A few years later the daughter died, leaving a will devising all of her property to a friend. The son, however, refuses to pay any of the profits of the farm to the friend and claims an exclusive interest in the farm. If the friend sues the son, how will a court most likely rule? - Answer>> D. For the friend, because he inherited the daughter's interest. The friend will prevail because he inherited the daughter's interest. Although the language in the mother's will uses the word "jointly," the grant also states "as tenants in common." Because no right of survivorship is mentioned, the court will most likely find that this language establishes a tenancy in common, rather than a joint tenancy. The daughter can pass her interest in the farm by will, and thus the friend now holds the farm as a tenant in common with the son A victim was struck by a car in a hit-and-run accident. A police officer arrived half an hour after the accident. The victim was in shock and came in and out of consciousness. As the officer

applied first aid, the victim muttered, "I know I'm going to die. Oh my, he ran the light!" The victim fell back into unconsciousness, but revived again and muttered, "Why didn't he stop?" The officer heard the comments clearly and made a note of them. Good police work by the officer and others led to the discovery of the driver of the car that struck the victim. The victim survived and filed a tort action against the driver. Before the case came to trial, the victim died of a heart attack. The causes of the heart attack were totally unrelated to the accident. The laws of the jurisdiction allow for survival of personal injury actions. Thus, the victim's estate is substituted for the victim as plaintiff. If the plaintiff's attorne - Answer>> D. Admissible, because the statements were made at a time when the victim feared impending death. he officer's testimony as to the victim's statements is admissible because the statements were made when the victim feared impending death and so they qualify under the dying declaration exception to the hearsay rule. Hearsay is a statement, other than one made by the declarant while testifying at the trial or hearing, offered in evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted. [Fed. R. Evid. 801(c)] Upon appropriate objection, a hearsay statement to which no exception is applicable must be excluded. Under the dying declaration exception to the hearsay rule, a statement made by a now- unavailable declarant while believing her death was imminent that concerns the cause or circumstances of what she believed to be her impending death is admissible. [Fed. R. Evid. 804(b)(2)] The declarant need not actually die as a result of the circumstances giving rise to her belief of imminent death. Here, testimony as to the victim's statements would be hearsay, because they are out- of-court declarations offered for the truth of the matter asserted; i.e., that the driver of the car that hit her ran a red light. However, these statements related to the circumstances of what the victim believed to be her impending death and the victim (who is now
