Art. 934 Codice civile svizzero (CC)
CC; Parte terza: Del possesso e del registro fondiario; Titolo ventesimoquarto: Del possesso; C. Effetti; II. Protezione giuridica; 4. Diritto di disposizione e di rivendicazione; b. Cose smarrite o sottratte
Art. 934 CC
Il possessore, a cui fu rubata una cosa mobile, o che l’ha smarrita, o che ne fu altrimenti privato contro la sua volontà, la può rivendicare entro cinque anni da qualsiasi acquirente. È fatto salvo l’articolo 722.
Il diritto di rivendicazione per beni culturali ai sensi dell’articolo 2 capoverso 1 della legge del 20 giugno 2003 sul trasferimento dei beni culturali, andati persi contro la volontà del proprietario, si prescrive in un anno dopo che il proprietario è venuto a conoscenza dell’ubicazione e del detentore dei beni, ma al più tardi in 30 anni dopo la perdita dei beni.
Se la cosa è stata acquistata all’asta pubblica, in un mercato, o da un negoziante di cose della medesima specie, essa può del pari essere rivendicata contro il primo od ogni successivo acquirente di buona fede, ma solo dietro compenso del prezzo sborsato.
Del resto la restituzione ha luogo secondo le norme relative ai diritti del possessore di buona fede.
