Swiss Civil Code

¹The rights and ob­lig­a­tions of the cred­it­or and of the debt­or in re­la­tion to the con­trac­tu­al ef­fect of li­ens ex­ist­ing when this Code comes in­to force are gov­erned by the pre­vi­ous law.

²In re­la­tion to ef­fects that arise by op­er­a­tion of the law which can­not be mod­i­fied con­trac­tu­ally, the new law also ap­plies to ex­ist­ing li­ens.

³If the li­en ap­plies to two or more par­cels of land, li­ab­il­ity un­der the li­en con­tin­ues to be gov­erned by the pre­vi­ous law.
