- When John bought a house, the seller included a habere licere clause in the contract, which ensured that John had the right to possess and enjoy the property without any disturbance.
- Under habere licere, if the previous owner of the property tries to evict John, he can take legal action against the seller to get compensation for the loss of the property.
These examples illustrate how habere licere protects the purchaser's right to possess and enjoy the property they have bought. It also ensures that the seller is responsible for any eviction that may occur after the sale.
