  • Adverse Possession and the Transmissibility of Possessory Rights – the Dark Side of Land Registration? Mark Pawlowski* *Barris
    Adverse Possession and the Transmissibility of Possessory Rights – The Dark Side of Land Registration? Mark Pawlowski* *Barrister, Professor of Property Law, Scholl of Law, University of Greenwich James Brown** **Barrister, Senior Lecturer in Law, Aston University It is trite law that, if unregistered land is adversely possessed for a period of 12 years, the title of the paper owner is automatically barred under s.15 of the Limitation Act 1980. Where the land is registered, however, there is no automatic barring of title by adverse possession1 – instead, after being in adverse possession for a minimum of 10 years,2 the adverse possessor can apply to be registered as the proprietor in place of the registered proprietor of the land.3 Upon receipt of such an application, the Land Registry is obliged to notify various persons interested in the land, including the registered proprietor.4 Those persons then have 65 business days5 within which to object to the registration6 and, in the absence of any objection, the adverse possessor is entitled to be registered as the new proprietor of the land. 7 In these circumstances, the registered proprietor is assumed to have abandoned the land. If, on the other hand, there is an objection, the possessor will not be registered as the proprietor unless he falls within one of the three exceptional grounds listed in paragraph 5, Schedule 6 to the Land Registration Act 2002, where: (1) it would be unconscionable for the registered proprietor to object to the application; (2) the adverse possessor is otherwise entitled to the land; or (3) if the possessor is the owner of adjacent property and has been in adverse possession of the subject land under the mistaken, but reasonable belief, that he is its owner.

INTRODUCTION The Condominium Act, 1998 is the culmination of many years of consultation to reform the existing legislation. The new Act will provide for increased consumer protection through more detailed disclosure requirements prior to the sale of a condominium, mandatory post construction audits of the common elements after registration of the condominium project and ongoing reserve fund studies to ensure adequate funding is available for repairs throughout the life of the condominium. In addition to the increased consumer protection, the new Act will introduce new forms of condominium ownership. These new forms will allow the industry to address a variety of consumer needs by allowing freehold and leasehold condominiums. Beyond the standard condominium type now in existence, the new forms of freehold condominiums will encompass vacant land condominiums, common element condominiums, amalgamation and phasing of standard condominiums. Standard condominiums can also be constructed on leasehold lands. The provisions of this Bulletin are effective as of May 5, 2001, being the date the Condominium Act, 1998 (new Act) comes into force. A series of Regulations under the new Act - 0. Reg. 48/01, 49/01, 50101, 51/01 and 52/01 have been filed and are available on the MCBS Internet site - WWW. ccr. EOV. on.ca.
