在澳洲的土地法中,有一项有意思的法条规定,那就是逆权占有。因为澳洲地广人稀,常常在很多年前,一些土地并不知道其真正的所有权,或者土地的真正所有人因为各种原因并没有管理或占有这块土地。那么实际占有这片土地的逆权占有人,通过长年的占有,并且符合具体的规定之后,就可以通过合法的程序,最后变成这块土地的真正所有人。最终,不花一分钱,却真正拥有了这片土地。
那我们一起来看看在澳洲关于逆权占有的具体规定。
第一,实际占有;
第二,占有的意图。
为了证明实际占有,逆权占有人在占有期间的具体行为可以提供依据:例如,持续地缴税,建立并维护栅栏,耕种土地,以及其他与土地真正所有人相类似的行为。其中,建立栅栏也是证明占有意图的一个非常关键的因素。
但总而言之,如果逆权占有人已经占有这块土地超过30年的上限,且土地所有人并没有提起任何诉讼,那么土地所有人将会彻底地丧失这项诉讼权利。
至此,不花一分钱占有一片土地就实现啦,大家有没有觉得这个冷知识很有趣呢!
Section 13 of the LAA provides that generally a person cannot bring an action to recover the land after the expiration of 12 years from the date the right of action accrued. Section 14 of the LAA provides that the limitation period commences when the documentary title holder has been dispossessed, or discontinues possession of the land, and pursuant to section 19, the period commences when another individual has taken adverse possession.
Section 29 of the LAA provides that if the person is under a disability on the date that the right of action accrues, there will be an extension for 6 years after the person ceases to be under the disability or dies, up to 30 years. Pursuant to section 5(2), disability means the person is an infant or underage or of unsound mind.
Pursuant to section 103(1) of the LTA, so far as is practicable, the registrar must give written notice of the application to registered proprietors, owners of adjoining lots and others having an interest in the lot.
If no caveat has been lodged by the specified day, the registrar may register the applicant as an owner pursuant to section 108(a).
