The Limitation of Action in Respect of the Claim for Deeming a Proprietary Right to Be Absent

Abstract

The article analyzes the jurisprudence regarding the decision on the applicability of the statute of limitations to the claim for recognition of property rights as absent. The resolution of the stated dilemma is built by identifying the characteristic features of the claim for recognition of property rights as absent. It is concluded that the statute of limitations does not apply to a claim recognizing property rights as absent, since this requirement is aimed at challenging the registered right to immovable things, and by virtue of Art. 195 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the statute of limitations applies only to claims based on a violation of the law, and not a dispute.
