Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book grapples with the question of equitable estoppel, a legal doctrine prohibiting parties from denying the truth of admissions that have influenced another party's conduct, leading to their injury. The author examines scenarios where equitable estoppel may apply and argues that it must be applied with caution, especially with respect to property titles. Through case studies, the author illustrates the conditions necessary for equitable estoppel to be applied. The author also explores the concept of licenses from the government to work the mines on public lands and analyzes whether a patent from the United States, upon the confirmation of a claim to land in California from the former Mexican government, conveys ownership of the precious metals the land may contain. The book provides valuable insights into the nuances of equitable estoppel and the complexities of land ownership and mining rights in the context of the historical evolution of land laws in California.
