Simple English definitions for legal terms
A quick definition of nonmerchantable title:
A title is the
legal right to control and dispose of property. It shows evidence of a person's ownership rights in property, like a deed. There are different types of titles, like
clear title, which means there are no encumbrances or limitations on the property, and
defective title, which means there is a conflicting claim to the property. A nonmerchantable title is a title that a reasonable buyer would refuse to accept because of possible conflicting interests or litigation over the property.
Title VII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a
federal law that prohibits employment
discrimination and harassment on the basis of race, sex, pregnancy, religion, and
national origin.
A more thorough explanation:
A nonmerchantable title is a type of title that a reasonable buyer would refuse to accept because of possible conflicting interests in or litigation over the property. It is also known as an unmarketable title or bad title.
For example, if a property has a lien or an unresolved legal dispute, it may have a nonmerchantable title. This means that the buyer may face legal challenges or financial liabilities if they purchase the property.
It is important to have a clear and marketable title when buying or selling a property to avoid any legal issues or disputes in the future.
