Domain Definition from Law Dictionaries & Glossaries
| The 'Lectric Law Library |
Domain
It signifies sometimes, dominion, territory governed -sometimes, possession, estate - and sometimes, land about the mansion house of a lord. By domain is also understood the right to dispose at our pleasure of what belongs to us.
A distinction has been made between property and domain. The former is said to be that quality which is conceived to be in the thing itself, considered as belonging to such or such person, exclusively of all others. By the latter is understood that right which the owner has of disposing of the thing. Hence domain and property are said to be correlative terms; the one is the active right to dispose, the other a passive quality which follows the thing and places it at the disposition of the owner.
This entry contains material from Bouvier's Legal Dictionary, a work published in the 1850's.
