Peaceable possession
In real estate and real property law, peaceable possession is "holding property without any adverse claim to possession or title by another". [1]
Quiet title is used to refer to the new owner's peaceable possession. Property title, or ownership, also includes possession, but is a greater property right than the latter. Therefore, peaceable possession may also refer to a tenant's, or lessee's, warranty of Quiet enjoyment, or require such for a quiet title action. [2]
Cotenants take property together in peaceable possession.[3] Peaceable possession is sometimes defined in the negative, that is, a trespasser lacks it. [4]
