A quick definition of confusio:

Confusio is a legal term that refers to a mixture of liquid property belonging to different owners. It can also mean the extinction of a right or duty that occurs when the roles of creditor and debtor become united in one person. In Scots law, it is a doctrine whereby a lesser right is absorbed into a greater right and is thus extinguished. For example, if a debtor acquired the rights of a creditor, the debt would become meaningless. However, obligations are not necessarily extinguished confusione where there is a legal relationship, independent of the pecuniary interests thereof, capable of revival by a subsequent separation of interests.

A more thorough explanation:

Confusio is a legal term that means a mixture of liquid property belonging to different owners. It comes from the Latin word "confundere" which means "to pour together".

There are three different meanings of confusio:

  1. In Roman law, it refers to a mixture of liquid property belonging to different owners. For example, if two people accidentally mix their wine together, they have created a confusio.
  2. In Roman law, it also refers to the extinction of a right or duty that occurs when the roles of creditor and debtor become united in one person. For example, if a debtor inherits the rights of a creditor, the debt would become meaningless.
  3. In Scots law, it refers to a doctrine whereby a lesser right is absorbed into a greater right and is thus extinguished. For example, if a tenant acquires the rights of a landlord, the lease would become meaningless.

These examples illustrate how confusio can occur in different legal contexts and can result in the extinction of certain rights or obligations.
