Dominion directum

RELATED TERMS
--------------------------------------

Qualified
This term is frequently used in law. A man hag a qualified property in animals ferae naturae, while they remain in his power, but, as soon as they regain their liberty, his property in them is lost. A man has a qualified right to recover property of which he is not the owner, but which was unlawfully taken out of his possession. But this right may be defeated by the owner bring a suit or claiming the property.

Ownership
Title to property. The right by which a thing belongs to some one in particular, to the exclusion of all other persons.

Landlord
A person firm or company which grants a lease or licence to a tenant and is accordingly responsible for the landlord's obligations under the lease. The landlord may be the owner of the freehold or a leasehold interest that permits him to underlet. now-how as a term often covers matters such as new product plans, costings, materials, production information, financial status, accountancy information, consumer lists and business information.

Possession
International law. By possession is meant a country which is held by no other title than mere conquest.

Property
Property is commonly thought of as a thing which belongs to someone and over which a person has total control. But, legally, it is more properly defined as a collection of legal rights over a thing. These rights are usually total and fully enforceable by the state or the owner against others. It has been said that "property and law were born and die together. Before laws were made there was no property. Take away laws and property ceases." before laws were written and enforced, property had no relevance. Possession was all that mattered. There are many classifications of property, the most common being between real property or immoveable property (real estate such as land or buildings) and "chattel", or "moveable" (things which are not attached to the land such as a bicycle, a car or a hammer) and between public (property belonging to everybody or to the state) and private property.

Feudal
A term applied to whatever concerned a feud; as feudal law: feudal rights.

Exclusive
1) Computation of time. Shut out; not included. As when an act is to be done within a certain time, as ten days from a particular time, one day is to be included and the other excluded. 2) Rights. Debarring one from participating in a thing. An exclusive right or privilege, is one granted to a person to do a thing, and forbidding all others to do the same. A patent right or copyright, are of this kind.

Enjoyment
The right which a man possesses of receiving all the product of a thing for his necessity, his use, or his pleasure.
