Read a random definition: perduellio

A quick definition of ne dominia rerum sint incerta, neve lites sint perpetuae:

NE DOMINIA RERUM SINT INCERTA, NEVE LITES SINT PERPETUAE: This is a Latin phrase that means we should make sure that people know who owns things and that arguments about ownership don't go on forever. It's important to have rules about how long someone can wait before they claim something as theirs, or else people might fight over things for a very long time. This phrase is often used in legal contexts to talk about how long someone has to claim ownership of something before it becomes too late.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A Latin phrase that means "lest the ownership of things should remain uncertain or lawsuits never come to an end." This phrase is often used in reference to the principle of prescription, which establishes rules for actions prescribed after a certain period of time.

Examples:

  • Prescription is a legal principle that allows someone to acquire ownership or other legal rights through possession for a specified period of time. For example, if someone has been using a piece of land for over 30 years without any legal challenge, they may be able to claim ownership of that land through prescription.
  • Prescription can also be used to extinguish unused rights or titles. For instance, if someone has a mineral servitude on a piece of land but fails to discover or produce any minerals for over 10 years, that servitude may be extinguished through prescription.

These examples illustrate how prescription can be used to establish ownership or extinguish rights based on the passage of time. The principle of prescription helps to ensure that ownership of things is not uncertain and that lawsuits do not continue indefinitely.
