Summary/Abstract: In the first part of this article, the author offers an outline of Hungarian legal sources of private law applied in Vojvodina, as they were applicable in this area due to the principle of legal continuity for private law sources in the territory of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (Yugoslavia). The second part of the article describes the role of the Novi Sad Chamber of the Cassation Court (Chamber B) in creating the unique system of private law between world wars (denoted as mixed system of law), which is illustrated by case-law related to property law (peaceful possession and ownership rights). The author compares this system with the existing Serbian private law indicating the need to preserve well-drafted legal rules regardless of their background in order to create the space for a delicate task of interpreting and applying law.
