Article 710
Titre XVII:
Des Contrats ou Obligations conventionnelles en général
(On Contracts or Conventional Obligations in General)
Si l'une des parties procure à l'autre un avantage purement gratuit, ce contrat est de bienfaisance.
Life lesson:
A gift with no strings — one gives, the other receives. This is a contract of beneficence.
Notes:
Contract of beneficence (gratuitous): one party procures purely gratuitous advantage to the other. Cf. Code Napoléon Art. 1105.
