A quick definition of a jure suo cadunt:

Term: A JURE SUO CADUNT

Definition: In Scots law, this phrase means that someone loses their right to something if they lose possession of it or abandon it.

A more thorough explanation:

A JURE SUO CADUNT

A jure suo cadunt is a Latin phrase used in Scots law. It means "they fall from their right." This phrase is used to describe situations where someone loses their property right because they have lost possession of it or have abandoned it.

Example 1: John owned a piece of land, but he left it unused for many years. Eventually, the government took possession of the land because John had abandoned it. In this case, John fell from his right to the land because he did not take care of it.

Example 2: Sarah lent her car to her friend, but her friend got into an accident and the car was totaled. Sarah's friend did not have insurance, so Sarah had to pay for the damages. In this case, Sarah fell from her right to the car because she lost possession of it and had to pay for the damages.

These examples illustrate how a jure suo cadunt applies to situations where someone loses their property right due to loss of possession or abandonment.
