Des Droits et des Devoirs respectifs des Époux

Civil Rights
Titre V: Du Mariage (On Marriage)
Chapitre V: Des Droits et des Devoirs respectifs des Époux (On the Respective Rights and Duties of Spouses)

La faculté de donner entre-vifs et de tester sans l'autorisation du mari, est accordée à la femme.

Life lesson: A woman may give while she lives and dispose after she dies — without asking permission. Her generosity and her legacy are her own.
Notes: Unconditional right of women to make gifts and wills without marital authorization. No property-regime exception — applies universally. One of the most expansive grants of female legal agency in the Code.
