Justinian I · The Digest of Justinian §40.7.7.pr

Alienation of Usufruct and Statuliber Conditions

Passage 6478 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

States that, unlike the transfer of ownership, the alienation of a usufruct does not carry the condition of a statuliber along with it.

[PAULUS libro quinto ad Sabinum. ] §40.7.7.prUsus fructus alienatio condicionem statuliberi secum non trahit.
[PAULUS libro quinto ad Sabinum.] The alienation of a usufruct does not carry the condition of a statuliber with it.

Notes

  1. §40.7.7.prUsus fructus alienatio — usus fructus is the genitive of the fourth-declension noun ususfructus (or the apposition of usus and fructus). Meaning 'the alienation of a usufruct', it shows the legal principle that, in contrast to the 'transfer of ownership (dominium)' discussed in the preceding fragment, the transfer of a usufruct does not shift the statuliber's condition to the transferee.
