A quick definition of tanquam dominus:

Term: TANQUAM DOMINUS

Definition: Tanquam dominus means "as owner" in Law Latin. It refers to the legal status of a person who has the same rights and privileges as an owner of a property or asset.

For example, if someone is given the right to use a property or asset as if they were the owner, they are said to have tanquam dominus rights. This means they can use the property or asset as if it were their own, but they do not actually own it.

Tanquam dominus is a legal term that is often used in contracts and agreements to define the rights and responsibilities of parties involved in a transaction. It is important to understand this term when entering into any legal agreement that involves the use of property or assets.

A more thorough explanation:

TANQUAM DOMINUS

tanquam dominus (tan-kwam dom-ə-nəs). [Law Latin] Hist. As owner.

Tanquam dominus is a Latin term used in legal contexts to refer to someone who has the rights and privileges of an owner. This means that they have control over something as if they were the owner, even if they are not technically the legal owner.

  • A tenant who has been given permission to make changes to a rental property may be considered tanquam dominus over those changes, even though the landlord is the legal owner of the property.
  • A person who has been entrusted with the care of someone else's property may be considered tanquam dominus over that property, with the responsibility to take care of it as if it were their own.

In both examples, the person in question has been given a certain level of control over a property or item, even though they are not the legal owner. This control is similar to what an owner would have, which is why they are considered tanquam dominus.
