SERRANO GOMEZ, Rocío  and  ACEVEDO PRADA, Milena. The contribution of case law and doctrine to the acquisitive prescription of ownership and just title in Colombian law. Entramado [online]. 2012, vol.8, n.1, pp.100-125. ISSN 1900-3803.

This article analyzes the central elements of acquisitive prescription of ownership and its legal nature, focusing on the legal nature of just title as an element of ordinary prescription. With the help of case law and doctrine, this work attempts to transcend the lack of legal definition, compare ordinary with extraordinary prescription as regards their elements and effects, and, in passing, propose variants to the phenomenon of possession in special laws, enacted by Colombia in order to facilitate access to private property.

Keywords : Acquisitive prescription of ownership; regular owner; just title; good faith; ordinary prescription.
