A destitutive fact is a type of fact that causes the loss of rights or modifies a legal relation. It is also known as a divestitive or ablative fact. For example, if a person sells their car to someone else, that is a destitutive fact because it modifies the legal relation between the two parties, with the seller losing their right to the car and the buyer gaining it.
