Summary

States the rule that the usufruct of either a specific part or an undivided share is lost through non-use.

[POMPONIUS libro undecimo ex uariis lectionibus. ] §7.4.25.prPlacet uel certae partis uel pro indiuiso usum fructum non utendo amitti.
[POMPONIUS in the eleventh book of Various Readings.] It is accepted that the usufruct either of a specific part or of an undivided share is lost by non-use.

Notes

  1. §7.4.25.prPlacet — Impersonal verb meaning "it is accepted" or "it is settled", taking the following accusative and infinitive (AcI) construction `usum fructum... amitti` as its subject clause.
  2. §7.4.25.prcertae partis uel pro indiuiso — Both expressions modify and qualify `usum fructum`. `certae partis` is a genitive of description ("of a specific part"), while `pro indiuiso` is a prepositional phrase meaning "as undivided" (referring to an undivided share or co-ownership).
