English term or phrase: strip and gore doctrine

The strip and gore doctrine is best understood as a rule of construction that is meant to apply where the parties' intent cannot be discerned by other means.

I have made a research and although it is quite clear in english, I cannot find a translation in spanish.

Details of this doctrine: "It is well known that separate ownership of long narrow strips of land, distinct from the land adjoining on each side, is a fruitful source of litigation and disputes. To avoid this source of contention, it is presumed that a grantor has no intention of reserving a fee in a narrow strip of land adjoining the land conveyed when it ceases to be of use to him, unless such fee is clearly reserved. In short, unless the parties make it clear that a fee is intended; it is presumed that they did not intend to create an otherwise unusable interest in land. The strip and gore doctrine can have application only when the specific strip is not included in the field notes of the conveyance. If it is so included, it would pass under the conveyance."

Explanation:
"Beware of Strips and Gores

By Charles Sartain on February 21st, 2012
Posted in Land Titles
A “strip” is just what it sounds like: A narrow parcel of land. A”gore” is a strip in another form, such as a triangle or other odd-shaped parcel. When a grantor conveys land he owns adjacent to a narrow strip that thereby ceases to be of benefit or importance to him, he also conveys the narrow strip unless he reserves the strip for himself by plain and specific language. These random tracts can be valuable when there is oil and gas production and can be lost without careful contract drafting."

La cuestión aquí es que se trata de un concepto propio del sistema jurídico de un país (que surgió en el estado de Texas) por lo que no existe un equivalente exacto en español. Por ello, sugiero una posible equivalencia en español, siempre manteniendo el término original en inglés (como referencia exacta de la doctrina particular).

Saludos ;)
