The action is based on the protection of the possession of the person: \"Every possessor has the right to be respected in his possession.\"<\/p>\n<p>The origin of this action are the injunctions of Roman law.  What generates this action is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The legitimate owner has been deprived of the possession of the thing.<\/li>\n<li>Possession has been disturbed without actually depriving it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The exercise of filing this action is a fundamental right that safeguards access to the courts in civil jurisdiction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does this possessory action materialize?<\/strong> Through a lawsuit, you can seek to have possession returned or possession retained.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who can be the owner of this share? <\/strong>Any person who is an owner, whether owner or not, for example a lessee or borrower can also bring this action.<\/p>\n<h2>Characteristics of the possessory action<\/h2>\n<p>The main characteristics of possessory actions are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They can be filed by natural or legal persons.<\/li>\n<li>The action protects a subjective right owned by the person who files this action and who sees it violated.<\/li>\n<li>It works as a procedural impulse, at the beginning of the judicial process.<\/li>\n<li>This action can only be aimed at protecting rights recognized in the civil code, civil rights.<\/li>\n<li>Only those actions considered civil may be filed in this civil process.<\/li>\n<li>These actions belong to private law, just as civil law belongs.<\/li>\n<li>It must be brought in front of the person who is disturbing the possession or is possessing it.<\/li>\n<li>The defendant must not prove anything, it will be the plaintiff who must prove his legitimate possession.<\/li>\n<li>The object of the action may be to regain or retain possession.<\/li>\n<li>The judicial process that resolves this action is usually a quick and summary procedure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Example<\/h2>\n<p>To better understand we can see an example: \u00abA\u00bb is in possession of a real estate property and his neighbor \u00abB\u00bb decides to do a work on the wall that separates both houses but this work disturbs the property of \u00abA\u00bb since he is destroying a orchard of \u00abA\u00bb.  Then \"A\" may file this possessory action for the judge to resolve this controversy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" itemprop=\"image\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"609\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Possessive-action.jpg\" alt=\"Possessing Share Example\" class=\"wp-image-112745\"  \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-center kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;2754&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Possessive action&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px;
