This 2-hour interactive online course deals with some of the basic rules of construction for interpreting land descriptions and resolving ambiguities therein. The intent of the parties is the primary requirment, which must be determined from the language of the description viewed in light of the surrounding circumstances at the time.

This course includes the following decisions:
Case 1 City of North Mankato v. Carlstrom; 212 Minn. 32 (1942)
Case 2 People v. Call; 223 N.Y. Supp. 257 (1927)
Case 3 Smith v. Smith; 622 A.2d 642 (Del., 1993)
Case 4 Smart v. Huckins; 82 N.H. 342 (1926)

There is a test included at the end of each section of this course.
