Abstract
Legal structure" is one of the most critical components in adjudicating civil claims, a domain which, in specific lawsuits, is in a state of disarray and lamentable condition. Litigation pertaining to the "legal bill concerning the removal of encroachment and compensation for damages incurred on properties", ratified on 17/12/1979, is among the cases for which no substantive effort has been made to analyze and delineate its legal structure. This article employs a novel methodology for the analytical description of its terms and phrases, and through an inductive analysis of judicial perspectives, deconstructs the constitutive elements of the cause of action into two categories: "basic conditions" and "procedural conditions". Based on the findings of this research, the following are identified as the fundamental pillars and substantive conditions of this provision: 1. Encroachment by the possessor/defendant upon the adjacent property ; 2.absence of intent in the encroachment 3. Existence of good faith on the part of the possessor; 4. Proof of the possessor's lack of knowledge regarding the encroachment; 5. Minor damages to the owner of the encroached-upon land. Conversely, the following conditions complement the aforementioned pillars and serve as subsidiary or procedural conditions that bring the adjudicative process to its conclusion: 1. The legal transformation of the claim and the constructive loss of the encroached portion; 2. Referral to expert appraisal for the determination of value, general damages, and diminution in value; 3. Verification of the priority of payment issuance, as a prerequisite for ruling on price and damages; 4. Adjudication of title documents. Finally, to aid in the comprehensive identification of the path to claim resolution, a "mental map" of the litigation process is provided.
