THE COURT CHARGED AND AUTHORIZED IN THE CASE OF CORRECTION OF THE LAND REGISTRY
383 of the Code of Civil Procedure.

384 of the Code of Civil Procedure in relation to the competent court in non-contentious judicial matters. According to the article “Unless there is a contrary provision in the law, the place court where the person or one of the interested parties is sitting is authorized for non-contentious judicial affairs.” Although this provision constitutes the general rule, since the case of correction of the land registry is related to real estate, the competent court will be the court where the real estate is located.

THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS IN THE CASE OF CORRECTION OF THE LAND REGISTRY
There is no statute of limitations provided for a lawsuit to be filed in the name of correcting the land registry. The reason why the case for correcting the land registry is not subject to any statute of limitations is that the relevant case is based on a right in kind. Real rights are the rights that ensure the direct dominance of people over property and therefore can be asserted against everyone, therefore, the fact that the legal right that is the subject of a lawsuit to correct the land registry is the same right has led to the fact that a statute of limitations has not been provided for in the relevant case.
