Resolution on the suspension of georeferencing registration due to objections from neighbouring owners

The Directorate General for Legal Certainty and Public Faith has ruled on an appeal against a negative qualification note issued by a Land Registrar in Granada. The registrar suspended the registration of the rectification of the description, boundaries, and surface area of a property following the commencement of proceedings under Article 199 of the Mortgage Law and the submission of objections by neighbouring owners and the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (Facts I and III). The dispute arises from the potential encroachment on neighbouring properties following the submission of new coordinates (Facts VI and VII).

In 2 key points

  1. Suspension of registration due to objections during Article 199 Mortgage Law proceedings (Hechos III)
  2. Entry of a preventive annotation due to the registrar's inability to proceed (Hechos IV)

How it affects those involved

For individuals seeking to rectify their property description, the existence of third-party objections (from neighbours or administrations) during Article 199 Mortgage Law proceedings can halt the registration of georeferencing (Facts III and IV). This necessitates the resolution of boundary disputes before definitive registration can proceed, affecting the legal certainty of the property's registered description.
