A person who has a life estate must maintain the property. This duty includes common upkeep so the property does not deteriorate. It also includes paying bills associated with the property, such as real estate taxes and insurance. A life estate owner has full rights to use the property during his lifetime. He may also lease or sell his interest in the life state, although he cannot sell the property itself. Life estates interests always end when the original life estate owner dies. Therefore, they can be difficult to sell or lease long term.
Art Law. Intellectual property laws give owners the exclusive right to profit from a work for a particular limited period. For copyrighted material, the exclusive right lasts for 70 years beyond the death of the author. The length of the right can vary for patents, but in most cases it lasts for 20 years. Trademark rights are exclusive for ten years and can be continually renewed for subsequent ten-year periods. Intellectual property laws do not fall in the category of Criminal Law, per se.
