Survival of Usufruct and Servitudes on Ownership Change

Passage 1277 of 9271 · Latin

Summary

States that neither a usufruct nor rustic servitudes (the right of way or drive) are extinguished by a change of ownership.

[GAIUS libro septimo ad edictum prouinciale. ] §7.4.19.prNeque usus fructus neque iter actusue dominii mutatione amittitur.
[GAIUS in the seventh book on the provincial edict.] Neither a usufruct nor a right of way or drive is lost by a change of ownership.

Notes

  1. §7.4.19.pramittitur — Although the subjects usus fructus and iter actusue are connected by neque...neque..., the verb amittitur is in the singular. This is a standard Latin agreement rule where the verb agrees with the nearest subject (actus), or is understood to apply to each subject individually.
