 Garner v Gerrish, 1984 Landl ord-T enant Law , T enancy at Will Facts: Donovan grant ed a lease of a house to Gerrish (D). The lease contained a clause granting the D the ability to terminate the lease at the date of his choice. No such right was granted to the lessor . Upon Donovan’s death, the administrator (P) attempted to evict the D, claiming that the will was indefinite as to time, and therefore, a tenancy at will had been created. Rule : A lease may provide for termina tion at the will of the tenant only While Ancient authority held otherwise, this rule grew out of the medieval ritual of livery of seisin, a s ymbolic act no longer fol lowed. B/C livery of seisin is no longer followed, it is reasonable to interpret the leases based on the will of the parties as expressed by the terms of the lease. Here, the language unequivocally reserves the right of termination to the D, so he may not be evicted Tenancy at Will Someone who is in possession of property with the consent of the owner of landlord for an unfixed period of time
