4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks Marian: So you know what are the two common known regimes for Marriage in Mexico: 1. The "Conjugal Regime", and 2. The "Separate ownershipp of property Regime" (Regimen de "Separacion de Bienes") If that is correct I will translate this -Mexican Government Form-, wich is a blank pre-print used as standard (Which only offer those two Regimes as options).

tenancy-in-common

Opposite is joint tenancy, also of land & bank accounts. Covers both realty and personalty.

At least 5 KudoZ entries, inc. Marian's, but none with this answer which is standard Anglo-Am. lawspeak. Should we be worried?


Example sentence:

www.proz.com/kudoz/949973

In a tenancy-in-common, there is individual ownership by the distinct owners; ... It is possible to convert joint tenancy into a tenancy in common. ...

Gracias lindamente!
neutral cmwilliams (X) : It's not always possible to use "standard Anglo-Am. lawspeak" when different legal systems are involved.// I still think it could be misleading to apply English concepts to countries which have a completely different legal system.

A common point. But, as mentioned, both joint tenancy (ownership) & tenancy-in-common cover both land, bank a/cs & goods. Same inheritance effect: unsplit with automatic right of survivorship or separately, in the same way as community or sep. prop.
