They are rather the exception among the many options for transferring ownership, but they also occur again and again in Austria: expropriations. “However, the cases in which disagreements exist between the parties before, during or after a procedure are the most publicized,” says legal scholar Christoph Bezemek, dean of the University of Graz’s law faculty.
