Determinable

Determinable refers to an interest in a property that can end when a specific event or condition occurs. For example, a fee simple determinable is a type of estate that automatically ends when a specified event happens.

Determinable can also mean that a fact can be determined or ascertained.

Example 1: John gives his property to the city as long as it is used as a park. If the city ever stops using the property as a park, it will automatically go back to John or his heirs. This is an example of a fee simple determinable.
