B. & B. Vending Co. v. Ducharme

In B. & B. Vending Co. v. Ducharme, 349 S.W.2d 630 (Tex. Civ. App. --Dallas 1961, writ ref'd n.r.e.), the court characterized the vending machine and shuffleboard concession as a license rather than a lease. See 349 S.W.2d at 633. Although the contract purported to "lease" the premises to the vendor, the court held the intention of one party "to dispossess himself of the premises and of the other party to occupy them" was lacking. See 349 S.W.2d at 633. Thus, there was only a license to go upon premises for a particular purpose which did not convey any interest in land. See id.
