Firm annotation
This closing section of the group applies the land-seizure method of Section 312 to real rights (jus in rem) that relate to immovable property, treating such rights as seizable assets. Because these rights are typically registered, the same steps of notice and register entry are used with any necessary adaptation. It ensures that valuable interests short of full ownership, tied to land, can be reached in execution. Older Supreme Court decisions citing Section 313 usually concern the pre-2017 numbering on attachment of claims, so they should be read against the current text.
Why this matters in practice
If a debtor holds a registered real right over land, such as a usufruct or servitude, rather than the land itself, that right may still be seized using the Section 312 procedure. Creditors should identify these interests in the land register and follow the same notice and recording steps. Their realisable value depends on the nature and terms of the right.
