4.3 Ownership

The Code's ownership chapter: the complete right in rem — use, income, transfer, exclusion; the presumption of registered ownership (the lalpurja's evidentiary primacy); the kinds (individual/joint/co-ownership — the sanjha family holding; spousal equal ownership of matrimonially-acquired property — the Code's landmark recognition; hereditary vs. self- acquired; legal vs. beneficial). The critical study: the Code's equalizing arc (the spousal joint title; the daughters' equal coparcenary) vs. the implementation gap (registration practice, the family's informal allocations, the litigation the new rules generate).
