Chapter Summary

Usufruct, which has influenced the development of the modern Scots law of liferent, was a right to use and enjoy the fruits of property for a period of time, usually the lifetime of the holder of the usufruct (known as the usufructuary).

It was limited, though, by the obligation not to encroach on the substance of the property.
