in fee

in fee
A term descriptive of the highest and most enlarged estate in real property, meaning "in fee simple." 28 Am J2d Est § 9. "When it is said that a man is seised in fee, without more saying, it shall be intended in fee simple; for it shall not be intended by this word 'in fee,' that a man is seised in fee tayle, unless there be added to it this addition, fee tayle." "When the terms in fee, without adjunct, are used as applied to estates, they are to be taken as descriptive of the highest and most enlarged estate, as contradistinguished from a fee conditional at the common law, or a fee tail by the Statute De Donis." Pennington v Pennington, 70 Md 418, 17 A 329. See fee simple.
