Surrender in Europe
Definition of Surrender
The yielding up of an estate for life or for years in land, so that it merges in the reversion or remainder. Surrender must be by deed, or may be by operation of law, e.g., if a lessee accepts a new leas incompatible with his existing lease, this operates as a surrender in law of the latter. A mortgagee or mortgagor in possession has power to accept surrenders of leases, subject to the conditions in section 100, sub-section 5, Law of Property Act, 1925.
Surrender was the principal mode of alienating copyholds (q.v.). They were surrendered to the lord of the manor to the use of the intended transferee, whom the lord was bound to admit as his tenant
