Article 13 Application for registration by a third party

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

This article applies where, in relation to any souvenir land, a third party is able to satisfy the registrar that one or more unregistered transactions have been effected since the declaration was made and that, as a result of them and any other events that have taken place—

(a)

the registered estate is now vested in him, or

(b)

a legal estate derived (whether directly or indirectly) out of the land is vested in him, or

(c)

a legal estate such as is referred to in sub-paragraph (a) or (b) has been transferred to him (either directly or indirectly) by the person in whom it has become vested.

(2)

The third party may apply to be registered as the proprietor of a legal estate if that estate is one to which section 3 of the Act would apply if the estate were an unregistered estate within that section.

(3)

Before determining an application under paragraph (2), the registrar must give notice of it to the person named in the proprietorship register as proprietor unless that person has consented to the application.
