Prescription is a legal resource by which the mere passage of time leads to the extinction or acquisition of rights. It is also a way to acquire goods or free oneself from obligations by fulfilling a certain time specified by law.

The acquisition of real estate by virtue of possession is called positive prescription. For this process to move on, the possession of the asset must be:

• As an owner;
• Peaceful;
• Without interruption;
• Open, public;

With this resource you can regularize your property through a trial of positive prescription.
