Abstract

Ownership is one of the new legal institutions that has entered Iranian law in the last century. Although this type of ownership has existed in jurisprudence since ancient times in the form of a common contract, there are differences with today's time-sharing that is manifested in English law. In English law, time ownership or time sharing has entered into the law of this country in two common and joint ways, which in terms of being common has the same relative nature as Iranian law. Considering this legal institution in the two countries mentioned, we try to study this issue in an analytical-descriptive way in the law of Iran and Britain and to determine the similar points and its differences in the law of the two countries. The results of the research show that in British law, ownership in time sharing is complete and absolute, while in Iran, ownership is created in a common way.
