Read a random definition: standard-setting organization

A quick definition of praedium:

Praedium is a Latin word that means land or estate. In Roman law, it referred to different types of estates, such as agricultural land (praedium rusticum) or urban land (praedium urbanum). It also included the concept of servitude, which is a right to use someone else's property for a specific purpose. For example, a dominant estate (praedium dominans) could benefit from a servitude over a servient estate (praedium serviens). Servitudes could be positive (allowing someone to do something) or negative (prohibiting someone from doing something).

A more thorough explanation:

PRAEDIUM

Praedium is a Latin term used in Roman law to refer to land or an estate. It can be used in different contexts, such as:

  • Praedium dominans: A dominant estate that benefits from a servitude.
  • Praedium rusticum: An estate used for agricultural purposes.
  • Praedium serviens: A servient estate burdened by a servitude.
  • Praedium urbanum: An estate used for business or dwelling, different from a praedium rusticum.

Servitude is another legal term related to praedium. It refers to an encumbrance or burden on an estate for another's benefit. Servitudes can include easements, irrevocable licenses, profits, and real covenants. There are different types of servitudes, such as:

  • Natural servitude: A servitude imposed by law because of the natural situation of the estates, such as the right of lower estate to receive waters flowing naturally from a higher estate.
  • Personal servitude: A servitude granting a specific person certain rights in property, such as a lifetime right over the property of another.
  • Public servitude: A servitude vested in the public at large or in some class of indeterminate individuals, such as the right of the public to a highway over privately owned land.

An example of praedium is a farm used for agricultural purposes, such as growing crops or raising livestock. An example of servitude is an easement that allows a neighbor to use a portion of your land to access their property. Another example of servitude is a natural servitude that requires a lower estate to receive waters flowing naturally from a higher estate.

These examples illustrate how praedium and servitude are used in different legal contexts related to land and property rights. Praedium refers to the land or estate itself, while servitude refers to the encumbrances or burdens on that land or estate for the benefit of others.
