SETTLED ESTATES ACT 1877 - SECT 45

Application for lease or sale in Ireland may be made to Landed Estates Court.

45. It shall and may be lawful for any person who under the provisions of
this Act may make an application to the Court of Chancery in Ireland for the
lease or sale of a settled estate, instead of making such application to the
said Court of Chancery in Ireland to apply to the Landed Estates Court,
Ireland, for the purpose of having the lease or sale of such settled estate
under the last-mentioned Court; and thereupon it shall be lawful for the said
Landed Estates Court, Ireland, to exercise all the powers conferred upon the
Court of Chancery in Ireland, in relation to leases or sales of such nature
under the provisions of this Act, save that the Judge in the case of a sale
shall himself execute the conveyance to the purchaser under such sale, and
save that such conveyance shall have the like operation and effect, and confer
such indefeasible title to the purchaser as if such sale had been made and
such conveyance had been executed upon an application for the sale of an
incumbered estate under the Landed Estates Court (Ireland) Act, 1858: Provided
always, that the Landed Estates Court, Ireland, shall make such investigation
of the title and circumstances of the said estates as shall appear expedient,
and also in cases of sales as in other cases preliminary to sales conducted in
the said Landed Estates Court, Ireland: Provided also that every decision and
order in the course of such proceedings shall be subject to appeal to the
[Court of Appeal in Northern Ireland] as in other cases under the said Act.
