3.1 Rights

Article 74 - Possession

Canon 1820 (link)

Possession is the intentional act and fact of holding, using or effectively controlling a Form. Possession is distinct from Ownership in that a Person who possesses a Form may have no rightful claim or title.

Canon 1821 (link)

A person does not possess a Form unless it is their intention to do so. Therefore the actions surrounding the control and use of a form prove intention.

Canon 1822 (link)

Possession that is considered lawful is called Lawful Possession.

Canon 1823 (link)

Possession automatically presumes the tacit acceptance of certain obligations, whether or not possession is ultimately considered lawful. A Possessor of Form is obliged to act as an honorable steward in the management of those possessions.

Canon 1824 (link)

Possession automatically presumes the tacit acceptance of certain rights, whether or not possession is ultimately considered lawful. The degree to which presumed rights of use or title may be granted are conditional upon the nature of the form and any associated trust.

Canon 1825 (link)

Any Person who claims ultimate possession in contravention of these canons, also assumes full liability and obligations. If this person having unlawful possession then acts in a way contrary to honorable stewardship they therefore consent to forfeiting any right, claim or protection under any law to the role of Executor or Administrator or Trustee.
