Accion reivindicatoria or accion de reivindicacion is, thus, an action whereby the plaintiff alleges ownership over a parcel of land and
[11] [12]
seeks recovery of its full possession. It is a suit to recover possession of a parcel of land as an element of ownership. The
judgment in such a case determines the ownership of the property and awards the possession of the property to the lawful owner.
[13]
It is different from accion interdictal or accion publiciana where plaintiff merely alleges proof of a better right to possess without
[14]
claim of title.
