immemorial possession

Read a random definition: expert witness

A quick definition of immemorial possession:

Possession means having control over something, like a toy or a house. It can be physical, where you actually have the thing, or it can be legal, where you have the right to use it. Sometimes, people can have possession of something even if they don't own it. Adverse possession is when someone takes control of something that belongs to someone else and keeps it for a long time, and eventually they might be able to claim ownership. Possession can be tricky to understand, but it's important because it can determine who has the right to use or own something.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Immorial possession is a type of possession that began so long ago that no one still living witnessed its beginning. Possession refers to the fact of having or holding property in one's power and exercising dominion over it.

Example: An indigenous tribe that has lived on a piece of land for generations without any legal documentation of ownership has immorial possession of that land.

This example illustrates immorial possession because the tribe has been in possession of the land for so long that no one can remember when they first started living there. Even though they may not have any legal documentation of ownership, their long-standing possession of the land gives them a claim to it.

One manager came in sick wearing a mask, got roasted and stopped wearing it that day. The entire office has been cycling sickness for two weeks now. It may not be super effective but it may help in slowing the spread during meetings when we have to be so close
