LANDLORD AND TENANT LAW AMENDMENT ACT (IRELAND) 1860 - SECT 52

Ejectment for year's rent unpaid.

52. Whenever a year's rent shall be in arrear in respect of lands held under
any fee farm grant, lease, or other contract of tenancy, or from year to year,
and whether by writing or otherwise, it shall be lawful for the landlord
immediately thereon, and before the expiration of the time, if any, limited
for re-entry thereupon in any lease or agreement, to proceed by ejectment for
the recovery of the possession of the said lands in [the Supreme Court of
Judicature of Northern Ireland] or [where the annual value of the lands does
not exceed seventy-five pounds, in the county court]; and the plaintiff's
right to sue as such landlord shall not be defeated by proof merely that the
legal estate in the rent or lands is vested in any other person not a party to
such suit or proceeding, but who would be a trustee for the plaintiff,
provided that the plaintiff was at the time of the institution of such suit or
other proceeding the person substantially and beneficially entitled to the
said rent.
