2. Module 2

   The question

   How are third-party interests protected by entry on the register, and when can a purchaser take free of them?

   Outcome

   You can distinguish notices from restrictions as methods of protection on the register, and explain the doctrine of overreaching — when it applies and what a purchaser must do to invoke it.
