) Raj owned the fee simple in a piece of lan known as Blackacre, which contained a small shopping mall that was included in the title of the property. Although he had no children of his own, he was especially fond of his nephew, Ludwig, and his niece, Elise. Raj wanted to ensure that they enjoyed the benefits of Blackacre, especially after he died. He therefore created the following arrangement: Beginning immediately, and for the rest of Raj's life, Ludwig was entitled to enjoy a life estate in Blackacre. Upon Raj's death, Elise (who is 25 years younger than Ludwig) would become entitled to enjoy a life estate in the property. Although all the parties were initially happy with that arrangement, difficulties arose after the economy went into a recession and the shops that had been operating in the shopping mall on Blackacre began leaving the premises. Within six months, the entire mall was empty. Despite protests from Elise, Ludwig did nothing to protect the value of the proeprty, even though vandals were smashing windows and trespassers had begun to use the parking lot as a garbage dump. What claims if any would Elise have against Ludwig? Would she be successful?answer this question with business law rule based on facts and analyisis of this scenario.

Answer #1

In compliance with Raj Ludwig's will, the house was owned and Elise was owned by the house. During a recession in Elise, the shopping center had been closed, a major loss center had been demolished. The vandals had reached the windows and the garbage dumps filled the parking area. Elisa believed that Ludwig was doing everything possible in protecting the property as the cleaning of the area was necessary to counter the vandals. Since the whole property is divided and there is nothing pre-determined about responsibility for assistance.so there is no argument by Elisa that would have been valid. The Ludwig did nothing to help Elisa.
