### sec.27 Lapsing of caveat
A caveat lodged under this part lapses—
for a caveat for which there is consent—at the end of the term stated in the caveat; or
for a caveat for which there is no consent—
if an order of the Land Court is in effect in relation to the caveat—when the order stops having effect; or
otherwise—on the day that is 3 months after the date of lodgement of the caveat or on an earlier day stated in the caveat.
If there is consent to the caveat and the caveat does not state the term of the caveat, the caveat continues in effect until it is withdrawn or removed.
For this section—
there is consent to a caveat over the resource authority only if each holder of the authority consented to the lodgement of the caveat and the consent was lodged with the caveat; and
there is consent to a caveat over the application for a mining lease only if each applicant consented to the lodgement of the caveat and the consent was lodged with the caveat; and
the date of lodgement of a caveat is the date endorsed by the chief executive on the caveat as the caveat’s date of lodgement.
