Phase 5: Action + Possession. Use of possession within an utterance that has a main category of ACTION (i.e., there is a single-verb in the utterance and it is an action verb). 

The utterance would first be coded according to its main category (Action) and then the coordinated category and phase, possession/5, would be added. 

The phase assignment for ACTION could then be done- it would be 5 because it contains denial.

Context/Explanation

She eat my cookie.

Main category (for eat) is action.  Action is placed at Phase 5 because the utterance also has a possession word.  Similarly, possession is classified as Phase 5 because it occurs in an action utterance.
