To the Question on Usucaption of the Land Plots

Abstract

In the article, the author refers to the controversial issues of usucaption of the land plots. Among such problems there is the question of uncertainty of the form of ownership of the land plot (private, state or municipal) which can be acquired in property. In general, the doctrine has three approaches: the first approach is the complete denial of the possibility of acquiring ownership of land on this basis; representatives of the second approach proceed from the possibility of applying this institution only in relation to land plots in private ownership; the third position is the absence of any obstacles to the acquisition of property rights by prescription of ownership. In solving this issue, the author considers it necessary to proceed from the value of land and land plots as a natural object, which at the same time has great economic value. Based on the foregoing, the article formulated the relevant conclusions.
