Old King Lear had three daughters, A, B, C, who never got along. Nonetheless he deeded 1,000 acres of land to them. The Deed expressly stated "...to A, B and C in fee simple absolute as joint tenants with right of survivorship." Because his daughters proved to be less than kind to King Lear in his old age, he ranted and raved that he wanted his land back. At one point C told the King she would give the land back but she never executed a deed. The years passed and B died before the king. C consulted a common law expert in freehold estates and concurrent ownership to find out who owned the land. What did the expert tell her about who owned the land? Question 32 options: 1) A and C as joint tenants 2) A, B heirs, and C as joint tenants 3) A and King Lear 4) King Lear only
