Article 383

Succession Law
Titre XV: Des Successions (On Successions)

Les biens qui n'ont pas de maître, appartiennent au roi.

Life lesson: What belongs to no one belongs to the crown. The king is the default heir of ownerless property — the state fills every vacuum.
Notes: Bona vacantia: ownerless property escheats to the king (royal domain). State as ultimate owner. Cf. Code Napoléon Art. 713. Reflects monarchical structure of the Kingdom of Haiti under Henry I.
