What is Understanding Joint Tenancy Severance about?

The document defines severance as the process of converting a joint tenancy (JT) into a tenancy in common (TIC). Severance can occur through notice in writing to all JTs during their lifetime, by one JT acting as if they were entitled to their own share, or through mutual agreement or conduct of the JTs showing intent to treat shares separately. One key case, Kinch v Bullard, established that notice of severance takes legal effect when delivered, not when received.
