| 释义 | joint tenancyDefinition Joint ownership of property by two or more related or unrelated entities (joint-tenants) which is effected only when four conditions interest, possession, time, and title (called four unities) are fulfilled.

Property in joint-tenancy is not subject to probate or claims of anyone (except due taxes) and passes on free. Also called joint tenancy with right of ownership in common. See also tenancy in common and time sharing. Use 'joint tenancy' in a SentenceIt was a joint tenancy, which made me a lot happier because I did not want to be in it alone and have to pay alone.
