POLB30H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Supreme Court Of Canada, Fiduciary
Document Summary
Property: the right to exclude and/ to exercise complete control (earlier legal definition) Fiduciary duty: act as an agent on behalf of the interest of somebody else. The puzzle is that property right doesn"t seem to be like what we think it is. In the case of indigenous title, there is a property right, but one that doesn"t have the features of the standard concept of property. Parking pad (prof"s example of her property but being unable to park conflicting rights ) Condominium (you own the condo but not the building) Apartment (conflicting property rights; landlord has the right to enter, you have to right to exclude others from entering) Beach front (common law rights of usage where other people are allowed to walk by it in order to move from place to place, common law limitation on the ownership of your property) Definition of property (legal scholars view) = conventional way of regulating the relationship between people and things.
