OPERATIVE FACTS IN SURRENDERS CREATION IN THE LESSEE OF A NEW INTEREST IN THE SAME PREMISES Where the lessee has accepted a new interest in the premises embraced in the original demise, and such new interest is incapable of existing along with the old, the latter is extinguished through a surrender "by act and operation of law." When a new interest of this kind has been created in the lessee, a problem arises which offers but two possibilities of solution. Either it must be held that the new interest is valid and the former interest extinguished, or else that the new interest is invalid and the original lease still in full effect. If the parties think in creating the new interest of its effect upon the original lease, it would seem that they must regard the old leasehold interest as ex- tinguished.

  • What Amounts to a Surrender by Operation of Law?
    September 2010 Review Property @ction Welcome to the Fifth Edition of the Quarterly Review from Hammonds’ Property@ction Team. In this issue we will look at the following: (i) What amounts to a surrender by operation of law; (ii) Does it do what it says on the tin? - full repairing and insuring leases; (iii) Double trouble; (iv) Compulsory purchase orders; (v) Adverse possession; We welcome all contributions to this review and if you would like to discuss this further please contact any of the editorial team. What amounts to a surrender by operation of law? Where a landlord and tenant bring a lease to an end, they usually do so by completing a deed of surrender. However, sometimes, it may be implied that a surrender has occurred. The term commonly used for an implied surrender is a surrender “by operation of law”. In a recent case, QFS Scaffolding v Sable1 , the court considered some of the relevant principles for a surrender by operation of law to take place. Facts The landlord (Mr and Mrs Sable) granted a lease to a tenant company which eventually entered into administration. Prior to the administration, a new company (QFS) was formed with a view to taking over the tenant’s business. The Sables negotiated terms for a new lease with QFS who, in fact, went into occupation. However, the negotiations faltered and no new lease was entered into. Instead, QFS asked the administrator of the tenant to assign the lease to it and, as a result of this request, a deed of assignment was executed.

  • Understanding the Religious Terrorism of Boko Haram in Nigeria
    African Study Monographs, 34 (2): 65–84, August 2013 65 NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER: UNDERSTANDING THE RELIGIOUS TERRORISM OF BOKO HARAM IN NIGERIA Daniel Egiegba AGBIBOA Oxford Department of International Development, University of Oxford ABSTRACT Boko Haram, a radical Islamist group from northeastern Nigeria, has caused severe destruction in Nigeria since 2009. The threat posed by the extremist group has been described by the present Nigerian President as worse than that of Nigeria’s civil war in the 1960s. A major drawback in the Boko Haram literature to date is that much effort has been spent to remedy the problem in lieu of understanding it. This paper attempts to bridge this important gap in existing literaure by exploring the role of religion as a force of mobilisation as well as an identity marker in Nigeria, and showing how the practice and perception of religion are implicated in the ongoing terrorism of Boko Haram. In addition, the paper draws on the relative deprivation theory to understand why Boko Haram rebels and to argue that religion is not always a sufficient reason for explaining the onset of religious terrorism. Key Words: Boko Haram; Nigeria; Religious terrorism; Identity; Relative deprivation theory. INTRODUCTION Since 2009, bombings and shootings by the Nigerian extremist group Boko Haram have targeted Nigeria’s religious and ethnic fault lines in an apparently escalating bid to hurt the nation’s stability. A spate of increasingly coordinated and sophisticated attacks against churches from December 2011 through July 2012 suggests a strategy of provocation through which the group seeks to spark wide- scale sectarian violence that will strike at the foundations of the country (Forest, 2012).

    American International Journal of Social Science Vol. 6, No. 2; June 2017 The Internalization of R.A Kartini’s Heroism Values in Social Science Learning to the Students of Junior High School Yohana Karolina Wolly Student of Post-Graduate Program Department of Historical Education Sebelas Maret University Sariyatun Professor of Historical Science Sebelas Maret University Sunardi Professor of Curriculum Development Science Sebelas Maret University Abstract This research aims to describe the internalization process of RA Kartini's heroism values in social science learning to the students of Junior High School with the aspects which includes (1) the teachers' understanding of RA Kartini's heroism values and (2) the identifying of internalization process of RA Kartini's heroism values in social science learning to students. This research used a qualitative technique with case-study strategies. The research result showed that RA Kartini's heroism values are understood as the value that needs to be inherited to young generation especially female teenagers such as a high fighting spirit in fighting for women. RA Kartini's heroism values are understood well by teachers so that it can ease the teachers in transferring the values to students through learning. Second, the internalization process is basically the implanting process of RA Kartini's heroism values so that it can develop the students' qualities and personality development by understanding, appreciating, and implementing RA Kartini's heroism values such as defense of the truth, discipline, hard work, independent, homeland loving, persistence, responsible, sacrifice, respect, and care.

Respondent willfully made fraudulent misrepresentations concerning debentures, recommended to customers unsuitable debentures, and caused his firm to make and preserve inaccurate books and records. Held, findings and sanctions affirmed. Appearances For the Complainant: Michael J. Rogal, Esq., and Leo F. Orenstein, Esq., Department of Enforcement, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority For the Respondent: Paul J. Roshka, Jr., Esq., and Craig M. Waugh, Esq. Decision I. Introduction David Escarcega appeals a February 29, 2016 Hearing Panel decision. The Hearing Panel found that Escarcega willfully made materially false and misleading statements in connection with seven customers’ purchases of debentures totaling approximately $516,825. It further found that Escarcega made unsuitable recommendations in connection with 12 customers’ purchases of the same debentures totaling approximately $1.5 million, and that he caused his firm to make and preserve inaccurate books and records. For this misconduct, the Hearing Panel barred Escarcega and ordered that he disgorge $52,270, which was the amount of commissions he received in connection with the transactions underlying his misconduct. - 2 - Central to each finding of misconduct in this case is a debt product—described by its issuer as involving “a high degree of risk”—that Escarcega recommended and sold to his customers. Escarcega sold these debentures (which he does not dispute were speculative and involved numerous risks as described in the debentures’ offering documents) by making misrepresentations to certain customers about and concerning the debentures’ purported safety and by ignoring his obligation to recommend suitable securities with respect to other customers.
