Final answer:
Adverse possession is the claim of title based on occupying a property without the owner's consent for a specified period of time.
Step-by-step explanation:
The claim of title based on occupying a property for an uninterrupted and continuous period of time without the owner's consent is known as adverse possession.
Adverse possession is a legal concept that allows an individual to acquire ownership of someone else's property by openly using and possessing it for a specified period of time without the owner's permission. To establish adverse possession, the occupation must be actual, open and notorious, exclusive, hostile, and continuous for a statutory period.
For example, if someone lives in a house without the owner's knowledge or consent for the required period of time set by the jurisdiction's law (usually 10 to 20 years), they may be able to claim ownership of the property through adverse possession.
