LAW OF PROPERTY ACT 1936 - SECT 17

17—Satisfied terms, whether created out of freehold or leasehold land, to cease

        (1)         Where the purposes of a term of years, created or limited at any time out of freehold land, become satisfied (whether or not that term either by express declaration or by construction of law becomes attendant upon the freehold reversion), that term of years shall merge in the reversion expectant thereon and shall cease accordingly.

        (2)         Where the purposes of a term of years, created or limited at any time out of leasehold land, become satisfied, that term shall merge in the reversion expectant thereon and cease accordingly.

        (3)         Where the purposes are satisfied as respects part only of the land comprised in a term, this section has effect as if a separate term had been created in regard to that part of the land.
