Possession naturelle, est la détention de quelque chose qui appartient à autrui: cette possession est de deux sortes; l'une qui est juste, comme quand un créancier possède la chose qui lui a été donnée en gage par son débiteur; l'autre qui est injuste, est celle d'un voleur et d'un possesseur de mauvaise foi, qui joint à la détention de la chose, l'envie de la retenir, quoiqu'il n'ait pas droit de le faire. 1, record 1, French, - possession%20naturelle

The continuing exercise of a claim to the exclusive use of a material thing. The elements of this possession are first, the mental attitude of the claimant, the intent to possess, to appropriate to oneself; and second, the effective realization of this attitude. ... (A)n intent to exclude others must coexist with the external facts, and must be fulfilled in the external physical facts in order to constitute possession.
