Allodial title - Voyager, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31) |
 | | Allodial title is inalienable, in that it cannot be taken by any operation of law for any reason whatsoever. |
 | | In particular, in the nations recognising Elizabeth II as sovereign, land is said to be "held of the Crown." In common legal use, allodial title is used to distinguish absolute ownership of land by individuals from feudal ownership, where property ownership is dependent on relationship to a lord or the sovereign. |
 | | Allodial title is subject to exemptions from seizure in debt or bankrupty under homestead laws, and the taxes are paid by the state treasurer as long as the original owner remains in the home. |
