Unless otherwise provided by the statute, rights in rem are extinguished by waiver.
If the third party has any right in rem of said right in rem or other legal advantage of said right in rem, the waiver of the preceding paragraph shall only be made with the consent of the third party.
A person, who has waived the right in rem of a personal property, shall also abandon the possession of the personal property.
