Proposition de loi relative à l'adaptation temporaire des règles de prescription acquisitive à Mayotte

Stage committeeUpdated 7d ago

This is a French bill proposing a temporary change to the rules on acquisitive prescription (adverse possession) in Mayotte, a French overseas department. Under these rules, a person who occupies land or property openly and for a set period can, in some conditions, become its legal owner. The bill would adapt these rules for a limited time in Mayotte. Based on the title alone, the aim appears to be clarifying land ownership there. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The bill would mainly affect landowners, occupants of land and property in Mayotte, and the local courts and administrations that handle property and land registration. The exact changes and their duration would need to be checked in the full text.
