Abstract

The article highlights the method of protecting the right of ownership and determining the subjects of use on the example of the analysis of judicial practice. The interrelationship of the right of ownership and the right of use, the order of following the main thing and the accessory thing are determined. Examples of a court case in terms of the court’s determination of the right of ownership and subjects of the right of use are given. The issue of property rights is analyzed in the context of a key aspect of social relations between subjects of civil law. The provision that the state’s attitude to the issue of property rights determines the features of the ruling regime in the country and testifies to the development of civil society has been updated. The inviolability of the right to property and the level of its protection is a kind of litmus test that determines the level of democratic society and the state’s attitude to basic human and citizen rights. Thus, Part 1 of Article 4 of the Civil Code of Ukraine stipulates that every person has the right, in accordance with the procedure established by this Code, to apply to the court for the protection of his violated, unrecognized or disputed rights, freedoms or legitimate interests. According to Part 1 of Article 16 of the Civil Code of Ukraine, every person has the right to apply to the court for the protection of his personal non-property or property right and interest. According to Article 41 of the Constitution of Ukraine, everyone has the right, in particular, to own, use and dispose of their property; the right to private property is acquired in accordance with the procedure established by law; no one can be unlawfully deprived of the right to property, the right to private property is inviolable (parts one, two, four). Analysis of court practice shows that consideration and resolution of civil cases in the field of violation of property rights is complicated by the imperfection of the legal system, the need to improve and change the existing legislation in this field. It was determined that mostly people go to court due to violations related to the lack of registration of ownership rights to real estate, loss of title documents, receipt of title documents by improper entities, presence of self-acting objects in real estate.
