Legal Definition and Related Resources of Reservation

Meaning of Reservation

It is a clause in a deed, usually a lease , whereby the grantor or lessor reserves to himself a new right or thing out of that which he grants or leases. Thus while by an instrument of lease the lessor grants to the lessee the right to the exclusive possession , use and enjoyment of the demised property , he is said to reserve to himself the rents from that property. Occasionally, the term has the meaning of exception . An area of land to which indian tribes have retained title . Also an area set aside for public use as in the term military reservation.

Reservation Alternative Definition

That part of a deed or instrument which reserves a thing not in esse at the time of the grant, but newly created. 2 Hilliard, Abr. 359. The creation of a right or interest which had no prior existence as such in a thing or part of a thing granted, by means of a clause inserted by the grantor in the instrument of conveyance. A “reservation” is distinguished from an “exception” in that it is of a new right or interest; thus, a right of way reserved at the time of conveying an estate, which may have been enjoyed by the grantor as owner of the estate, becomes a new right. 42 Me. 9. A reservation may be of a life estate (28 Vt. 10; 33 N. H. 18; 3 Jones [N. C] 37, 38; 23 Mo. 373; 3 Md. Ch. 230) ; of a right of flowage (41 Me. 298) ; right to use water (41 Me. 177; 9 N. Y. 423; 16 Barb. [N. Y.] 212) ; right of way (25 Conn. 331; 6 Cush. [Mass.] 254; 10 Cush. [Mass.] 313; 10 B. Mon. [Ky.] 463) ; and many other rights and interests (33 N. H. 507; 9 B. Mon. [Ky.] 163; 5 Pa. St. 317). See 6 Cush. (Mass.) 162; 4 Pa. St. 173; 9 Johns. (N. Y.) 73.
