Art. 5

C. Fed­er­al law and can­ton­al law

I. Can­ton­al civil law and loc­al cus­tom

 

1In­so­far as fed­er­al law re­serves the ap­plic­a­tion of can­ton­al law, the can­tons may en­act or re­peal civil law pro­vi­sions.

2Where the law makes ref­er­ence to prac­tice or loc­al cus­tom, the ex­ist­ing can­ton­al law is deemed a val­id ex­pres­sion there­of, provided no di­ver­gent prac­tice is shown to ex­ist.
