A more thorough explanation:
CUM COMMUNI PASTURA
cum communi pastura (pronounced kuhm kuh-myoo-ni puh-styuh-ruh). [Law Latin] This phrase refers to a servitude of pasture, not a right of common, on a property. It means that the land can be used for grazing animals, but it is not a shared right among multiple owners.
An example of cum communi pastura would be if a farmer owned a large piece of land and allowed his neighbor to graze their cows on it. The neighbor would not have a right to the land, but rather a servitude to use it for grazing.
Another example would be if a group of farmers agreed to share a large pasture for their animals. Each farmer would have a servitude of pasture on the land, but they would not have a right of common ownership.
These examples illustrate that cum communi pastura grants a limited right to use land for grazing, but it does not give ownership or a shared right among multiple parties.
