Difference between joint tenancy and tenancy in common

Law
1 answer:
kvasek [131]3 years ago
4 0

Answer & Explanation: Joint tenancy <em>differs</em> from tenancy in common when there is a death or when one owner wants to sell their share.

Tenants in common:  are able to individually sell their ownership in the property. That means that owner A could sell his 50-percent interest while owner B retains her half. The same holds true for inheritances. If owner A passes away, his ownership rights are inherited by his heirs, while owner B would continue to own her portion of the property.

Therefore a tenancy in common can lead to some sticky situations where co-owners of a property don't know each other well or at all.

Whereas in a Joint tenancy when a joint tenant dies the other remaining joint tenants get the decease tenants's interest (eg. ownership) in the property. Also, a joint tenancy allow owners to sell their interests. If one owner sells, the tenancy is converted to a tenancy in common.

What are your thoughts on this interview? Does Richard Clarke have a point when discussing breaking the Department of Homeland S
irina [24]

1. Richard Clarke does not have a point when he discussed breaking the Department of Homeland Security into multiple departments because what this achieves is increased departmentalization.

2. I would not split the Department of Homeland Security into multiple departments.  Rather, I would split the department into operational units to manage the various threats that the United States faces while keeping the department as one.

<h3>What are the goals of the Department of Homeland Security?</h3>

The Department of Homeland Security, created after the 9/11 attacks, to strengthen the security architecture of the nation at home, has the responsibility to pursue the following security goals:

  • Prevent terrorism
  • Enhance security
  • Secure and manage U.S. borders
  • Enforce and administer U.S. immigration laws.

Under these broad goals, the Department of Homeland Security oversees the national security of the United States from numerous threats.

Some of the direct responsibilities of the Department of Homeland Security include:

  • Border security
  • Aviation security
  • Countering terrorism
  • Emergency response
  • Chemical facility inspection
  • IT and cybersecurity security
  • Natural disaster planning and response.

Thus, instead of discussing splitting the Department of Homeland Security into multiple departments, Richard Clarke should look at ways to strengthen and empower the department to achieve its goals.
