DIVISION 1. INTRODUCTION
CHAPTER 1. DEFINITION OF CERTAIN GENERAL TERMS
§ 7. Possessory Interests in Land
Ariz.2021. Subsec. (a) and com. (b) quot. in sup. Invitee sued sublessees of commercial building,
alleging that defendants breached their duty of care towards plaintiff when defendants were repairing the
building's roof, because plaintiff fell through a rooftop skylight and sustained injuries. The trial court
granted defendants' motion for summary judgment. The court of appeals affirmed in part as to one
sublessee and reversed and remanded as to the other. This court affirmed in part, reversed in part, and
remanded, holding, inter alia, that defendants did not owe plaintiff a duty of care to keep the roof in a
reasonably safe condition, because plaintiff failed to materially dispute that defendants occupied the roof
with intent to control while conducting repairs. Citing Restatement of Property § 7, the court pointed out
that defendants' lacked the authority to exclude others from the premises and to direct how the roof was
repaired and maintained, which weighed towards precluding a finding that defendants had possession of
the roof. Dabush v. Seacret Direct LLC, 478 P.3d 695, 700.
DIVISION 2. FREEHOLD ESTATES
CHAPTER 4. ESTATES IN FEE SIMPLE DEFEASIBLE
TOPIC 1. CREATION OF AN ESTATE IN FEE SIMPLE DEFEASIBLE
§ 44. Fee Simple Determinable-Form of Limitation
Or.App.2020. Cit. in conc. and diss. op. Property managers who lived and worked in an apartment
complex filed a claim under the Oregon Residential Landlord Tenant Act against owner of the complex,
alleging that they experienced health issues attributable to mold in the apartments. The trial court
granted summary judgment for owner. This court reversed and remanded, holding that owner failed to
show that managers' claim under the Act failed as a matter of law under an exception for occupancy by
an employee of a landlord whose right to occupancy was conditional upon employment in and about the
premises. The concurring and dissenting opinion argued by analogy to the law of future estates that
owner's right to elect to evict managers upon termination of employment was akin to a fee simple
subject to a condition subsequent under Restatement of Property § 45, and that an express and automatic
termination of tenancy, like a devise of an estate in fee simple determinable under Restatement of
Property § 44, was not required. Rowden v. Hogan Woods, LLC, 476 P.3d 485, 504.
§ 45. Fee Simple Subject to a Condition Subsequent-Form of Limitation
Or.App.2020. Cit. in conc. and diss. op. Property managers who lived and worked in an apartment
complex filed a claim under the Oregon Residential Landlord Tenant Act against owner of the complex,
