The addressee of Article 14 of Law No. 5 of 1959 concerning Real Estate Registration is the authority entrusted with registration, and it does not prejudice the courts' right, when hearing an action to establish ownership, to rely on any evidence they find convincing. The issuance of Decree-Law 73/1979 does not detract from this. - 854 - Ownership
