Section 10-10.2. Power to lease in tenant for life; scope  


Latest version.
  • A power may be conferred upon a tenant for life to make leases of real
      property  for  a  term  of not more than twenty-one years to commence in
      possession during his lifetime.  If the power authorizes,  or  the  life
      tenant  makes,  a  lease  for a term in excess of twenty-one years, such
      power or lease is valid for twenty-one years, but  is  void  as  to  the
      excess.
