Stillicidium

civ. law. The rain water that falls from the roof or eaves of a house by scattered drops. When it is gathered into a spout it is called fumen. Without the constitution of one or other of these servitudes, no proprietor cam build so as to throw the rain that falls from his house directly on his neighbour’s grounds; for it is a re-striction upon all property, nemo potest immitere in alienum; and he who in building breaks through that restraint, truly builds on another man’s property, because to whom soever the area belongs, to him also belongs whatever is above it: cujus est solum, ejus est usque ad celum.

3 Burge on the Confl. of Laws, 405.
