középfokúbirtokos

A középfokúbirtokos, often translated as "intermediate possessor" or "middleholder," is a legal term in Hungarian property law. It refers to a person who has lawful possession of a property but does not hold full ownership rights. This status typically arises in specific situations where the ownership and the right to use or possess the property are separated.

One common scenario where a középfokúbirtokos might be recognized is in cases of usufructuary rights, where one party has the right to use and enjoy the fruits of a property owned by another. Another instance could involve certain types of leases or long-term rental agreements where the tenant has significant control and possession over the property for an extended period. The term can also appear in contexts related to easements or servitudes, where a person may have a right to possess or use a portion of another's land for a specific purpose.

The rights and obligations of a középfokúbirtokos are generally defined by the specific legal agreement or statute that creates this status. They are distinct from those of a full owner, who possesses all rights, and a mere detainer, who holds the property on behalf of another without any possessory right themselves. The legal framework surrounding intermediate possession aims to balance the interests of the property owner with those who have a legitimate claim to possess or use the asset.
