A quick definition of facto et animo:

Term: FACTO ET ANIMO

Definition: Facto et animo means "in fact and intent." It is often used in legal contexts to describe taking possession of something. This means that not only did someone physically take control of something (facto), but they also intended to do so (animo). For example, if someone picks up a lost item on the street, they may not have intended to take possession of it, so they do not have facto et animo. However, if someone intentionally takes something that does not belong to them, they have both facto et animo.

A more thorough explanation:

FACTO ET ANIMO

Facto et animo (fak-toh et an-uh-moh) is a Latin phrase that means "in fact and intent." It is often used in legal contexts to describe the act of taking possession of something.

When someone takes possession of a property, they must do so facto et animo. This means that they must physically take control of the property (facto) and intend to keep it as their own (animo).

For example, if John moves into an apartment and starts paying rent, he has taken possession of the property facto et animo. He physically occupies the space (facto) and intends to continue living there (animo).

The examples illustrate how the phrase facto et animo is used in legal contexts to describe the act of taking possession of something. To take possession of something facto et animo, a person must physically control the object or property (facto) and intend to keep it as their own (animo). This ensures that the person has a legitimate claim to the property and can defend their ownership rights if necessary.
