This course deals with questions concerning the law dealing with matrimonial regimes or non marital cohabitation that directly interest the operation of notaries. It is also intended for lawyers and others, and will provide them with additional knowledge in the practice of certain technical matters.
The course involves advanced questions concerning the material covered in the bachelor coursework, proceeding by means of examples of jurisprudence.
The following topics will be covered: the primary regime and legal regime; marriage contracts; procedures for changing the matrimonial regime; liquidation or division of a legacy in common, particularly as regards post-communitarian non-division; conventional community and the theory of matrimonial advantages in particular; the regime of separation of property and its correctives, aimed at communitarization; the transition law of July 14, 1976. |
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
| The objective of this course is twofold: first, to give to future lawyers knowledge about the choice of the best matrimonial regime for their clients, or the best modification of their matrimonial conventions; second, to encourage the precise application of the law governing family property law in practice, in order to prevent clients from settling too quickly, and from making concessions regarding matters on which they might easily be upheld by the law.
Participation by students will be encouraged constantly, through questions and requests for opinions; the point is to improve students' assertiveness and their ability to react immediately when faced with a new question. |
