bailee (custodian) n. a person with whom some article is left, usually pursuant to a contract (called a "contract of bailment"), who is responsible for the safe return of the article to the owner when the contract is fulfilled. These can include banks holding bonds, storage companies where furniture or files are deposited, a parking garage, or a kennel or horse ranch where an animal is boarded. Leaving goods in a sealed rented box like a safe deposit box, is not a bailment, and the holder is not a bailee since he cannot handle or control the goods. (See: bailment, bailor) |

Prior to Israel's establishment, the Palestinian national movement was largely under the custodianship of Jerusalem's notable families. During the course of its 13-year custodianship of the portfolio, Regional Aircraft has secured more than 1,400 portfolio transactions, worth in excess of $2. This emotional connection might suggest that simple maintenance or custodianship is the whole of the superintendent's responsibility, except that two letters, "in," come immediately before tend, which adds another dimension--intend. |
