دعوى التعويض عن منع حائز العقار عن حيازته. المدعي عليه فيها هو كل من يرتكب فعلاً إيجابياً على العقار يؤدي إلى ذلك المنع. كفاية أن تكون حيازة الحائز حيازة مادية حالية بأن تكون يده متصله بالعقار اتصالاً فعلياً وقائمة وقت المنع بما يجعل المانع للحيازة في موقف من يأخذ الحق بيده دون أن يلجأ للقضاء. مثال لقيام الصفة في المدعي عليه لتغيير مفتاح شاليه بقصد منع حيازته. - دعوى المطالبة بالريع:-Original Arabic judgment citations
