CONT

The principle of free alienability soon reasserted itself, however, and various disentailing methods were devised to permit the tenant in tail in possession to bar the entail and to obtain a fee simple. These included the warranty, the fine and the common recovery. The most effective of these, the common recovery, was confirmed by the courts in Taltarums's Case in 1472. Both the fine and common recovery were in common use until they were replaced in the 19th century by the simple statutory method of the disentailing assurance.
