Nemo dat quod non habet
Nemo dat quod non habet, literally meaning "no one [can] give what they don't have" is a legal rule, sometimes called the nemo dat rule that states that the purchase of a possession from someone who has no ownership right to it also denies the purchaser any ownership title. This rule usually stays valid even if the purchaser does not know that the seller has no right to claim ownership of the object of the transaction (bona fide).
