Legal Definitions - extirpatione

Extirpatione

Extirpatione is a legal order that prevents someone from intentionally damaging a house or cutting down trees on land that they no longer have the right to own. This order can be issued before or after a court decision.

For example, if someone sells their property to another person, but they are angry about the sale, they may want to damage the house or cut down trees on the land. If the new owner is worried about this, they can get an extirpatione order to prevent the previous owner from causing any harm.

Another example is if a landlord evicts a tenant, but the tenant is angry and wants to damage the property before leaving. The landlord can get an extirpatione order to prevent the tenant from causing any damage.

These examples show how extirpatione can be used to protect property from intentional harm by someone who no longer has the right to own it.
