Definition: An owner's right to keep others from entering or using the property without permission, subject to lawful limitations. It is one part of the bundle of property rights.
Example
An owner asks an unauthorized visitor to leave private land.
Keep the distinction clear
Exclusion is not unlimited. A valid easement, a tenant's rights, or lawful government authority can permit access that the owner cannot simply forbid.
