Along the same lines the new Code of Civil Procedure in article 1.071 (amending the Public Records Law) introduces the extrajudicial procedure for the usucaption of real estate. This book aims to address the phenomenon of de-judicialization with a focus on extrajudicial usucaption brought to light by the current Code of Civil Procedure presenting the procedure for extrajudicial usucaption (already with the updates brought in by law 13.465/17) its applicability and also giving a retrospective of the institute of usucaption exposing its requirements modalities and foundations.
