  • Property Law (common law)
OBS

Dispossession : deprival of the right to possess a thing, including the right to occupy land and buildings, and meaning in its widest sense deprival of the right to own it. The French and Spanish terms, as well as dispossession and eviction, apply theorically to all forms of property, but all of them are used in particular of land and buildings; this is especially true of eviction, to which dispossession should therefore be preferred unless the context clearly indicates that the eviction concerns land and buildings, e. g. in the case of squatters being evicted from housing by court order. The dispossession referred by the French and Spanish terms is that suffered by a purchaser or a lessee or hirer of property as a result of a claim by a party extraneous to the sale or the lease or hire and includes threat at dispossession and harassment.
