Legal definition for Indian law research
Definition
In jure cessio means a fictitious trial held to transfer ownership of property. At trial, the transferee appeared before a praetor and asserted ownership of the property. The actual owner also appeared, but did not contest the assertion, and so allowed the transfer of the property to the plaintiff, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 789.
