Article 121

De l'Adoption

Civil Administration
Titre VII: De l'Adoption et de la Tutelle officieuse (On Adoption and Official Guardianship)
Chapitre I: De l'Adoption (On Adoption)

Trois mois après cette dernière formalité, sur le vu d'une expédition en bonne et due forme du jugement de la cour supérieure, l'inscription de l'adoption sera faite, à la réquisition de l'une ou de l'autre des parties, sur le registre du lieutenant de juge du lieu où sera le domicile de l'adoptant ; ce délai expiré, l'adoption perdra sa force et vertu.

Life lesson: Three months to inscribe the adoption — and not a day more. An adoption unrecorded is an adoption undone.
Notes: 3-month deadline for civil registration of the confirmed adoption. Forfeiture clause: adoption becomes void if not inscribed within the deadline. Creates urgency around completing the administrative chain. Registration at the adopter's domicile — consistent with Art. 116.
