Irish Church Act, 1869

Sales of lands, &c. may be made in Landed Estates Court.

54. If in any case in which the Commissioners are by this Act authorized or directed to sell any property it appears to them to be expedient that the same should be sold, or the sale thereof carried out, in the Landed Estates Court in Ireland, it shall be lawful for the Commissioners so to declare by order, and to direct that such sale shall be effected or carried out by the said court and thereupon such sale shall be effected or carried out in and by the said court accordingly; but any right of pre-emption herein-before declared shall be as far as possible preserved in the said court; and the conveyance of the premises so to be sold, or the sale of which may be carried out, under any such order, shall be executed by a judge of the said court, and shall have the same force and operation in all respects as if the same were so executed in a matter in which an absolute order for sale of the said premises had been duly made by the said court on a petition filed therein for that purpose.
