Under the early English common law, ownership of real property was transferred by a technique called âfeoffment.â This involved delivery of possession, which was termed âlivery of seizin.â No writing or deed was involved.
On average there are about 4.3 weeks in a month. Each week is 7 days, and there are normally either 30 or 31 days in a month, so there are usually between 4.2 and 4.4 weeks per month. The exception is February because it has fewer days, so there are about 4 weeks in that month.
It means that on the calendar all the days in a year are arranged in 53 weeks, and one or two of them have less than seven days. What is more, in rare cases the calendar can get even 54 weeks. This situation happens in every 28 years when the 1st of January and the 31st of December form separate weeks.
