Brevi manu

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brevi manu (abbreviated "br. M.") Is a term from the Latin and means first of short hand , summarily , without any fuss .

The designation was used in two ways in the German-speaking area:

  1. In transactions of authorities : If prompted by a document available on the document in the original has been set, and the original is now sent to the recipient with the so-mounted available.
  2. As a term from legal language : brevi manu traditio means handover and describes the transfer of ownership of a thing without the simultaneous handover of the thing, so when the owner of a thing, which he has handed over to another, leaves it to him as property. There is no longer any need for a formal handover, as he already exercises the possession necessary for a handover. The brevi manu traditio is special insofar as the basic rule applied in Roman law was that acquisition of ownership had to take place through “physical contact” (at least touch) and with “consciousness” ( corpore et animo ) oriented towards this, for which an exception was created .
