Consent is either not required or may be dispensed with by a judge if both the minor's parents are dead or incapable of acting and no guardian has been appointed. Again, in all the provinces, a judge may grant an order dispensing with the normally required parental or tutorial consent if the parent or guardian withholds it unreasonably or arbitrarily. 2, record 1, English, - order%20dispensing%20with%20parental%20consent

A tenancy at sufferance arises where a tenant, having entered under a valid tenancy, holds over without the landlord's assent or dissent. Such a tenant differs from a trespasser in that his original entry was lawful, and from a tenant at will in that his tenancy exists without the landlord's consent. A tenancy at sufferance can arise only by operation of law, and not by express grant, for it assumes an absence of agreement between landlord and tenant.(Megarry & Wade, 4th ed., 1975, p. 640). 1, record 3, English, - tenancy%20at%20sufferance

Reservation of power to non-proving executors. If several executors are appointed, one or more of them may prove the will without the consent or renunciation of the others, power being reserved to grant probate to the latter whenever they or any of them shall duly apply for the same. An executor to whom power is reserved may, either during the lifetime or after the death of the proving executor or executors, renounce probate, or prove the testator's will by extracting a grant of double probate...("Tristram and Coote's Probate Practice", 26th ed., 1983, p. 111) 1, record 4, English, - non%2Dproving%20executor

Although the Court has jurisdiction to commit administration to joint administrators, a sole administrator is preferred, because joint administrators, unlike joint executors, cannot act individually. Before a joint administration will be made all the next of kin within the jurisdiction must consent to the grant being made. Not more than three joint administrators will be appointed.(Widdifield, Surrogate Court Practice and Procedure, 2nd ed., 1930, p. 302) 1, record 6, English, - joint%20administration

A state may grant a right of exclusive use over a part of its territory to another state, retaining sovereignty, but conceding the enjoyment of the liberties of the territorial sovereign. Such a grant may be described as a "lease"... these grants do constitute privileges, and in principle their incidence depends on the consent of the territorial sovereign. In most cases where military and naval bases have been established by agreement the result is more akin to a contractual licence than it is to an interest in land in the English sense. 1, record 9, English, - lease

A nonexclusive license gives to a party the right to make and/or use and/or sell; however, the patent owner retains the right to practice the invention and to grant licences to any number of other parties. The nonexclusive license is merely an assurance that patent owner will not charge the licensee with infringement for any conduct that would otherwise be an infringement. If the patent owner does not sue others who are infringing the patent, the nonexclusive licensee has no right to enforce the patent against such infringers without the consent of the patent owner. 2, record 10, English, - non%2Dexclusive%20licence

En accordant une licence non exclusive, le breveté se réserve le droit d'accorder d'autres licences et d'exploiter lui-même l'invention. En pratique, la conclusion d'une telle licence non exclusive se produit le plus souvent lorsque le breveté réalise qu'il est plus avantageux pour lui d'accorder une telle licence à son concurrent que d'exploiter lui-même l'invention. Ordinairement, lors de la négociation d'un tel contrat, le licencié exige l'inclusion d'une clause dite la plus favorable par laquelle il est prévu que si le breveté accorde une licence plus avantageuse à un tiers, il aura alors droit de bénéficier des mêmes privilèges. 1, record 10, French, - licence%20non%20exclusive
