fee-tail
A fee tail is a type of legal arrangement in real property law where the inheritance of an estate or property is restricted to certain heirs. This essentially means the property cannot be sold, given away, or bequeathed freely by the owner, but will pass down directly to the owner's direct descendants, such as a son or daughter, upon their death. This was a common practice in the English legal system, used as a way to keep property within a family line. It has become rare or obsolete in most legal systems today due to restrictions or reforms.
