Founding principles

After a study of various classifications of goods and rights, especially the distinction between real estate and tangible property, Title II is devoted to property law. First a definition and analysis of the characteristics of property law will be provided. Subsequently, the ordinary methods of obtaining property will be studied, especially the concepts of possession, and, concerning the derived methods, the system of real estate publicity concerning rights in rem in real estate, other than privileges and mortgages. Next, we will develop the question of the scope of property, specifically of real estate, litigation concerning property and, finally, discuss a special form of property, namely co-ownership. Lastly, we will study the main real estate rights in Title III : usufruct (as well as the rights of use and residence) and easements, essentially easements created by man.
