Licensee

A person who enters land with permission of the owner but without a purpose of conveying economic benefit on the owner of the land. Typically, a licensee is a social guest. Under tort law, if an owner of land knows in advance of a concealed dangerous condition on his land that a licensee is not aware of, he owes a duty to the licensee in this situation.
