I. Ca­pa­city

1. Leg­al ca­pa­city

 

1 Every per­son is cap­able of be­ing an heir and ac­quir­ing prop­erty by test­a­ment­ary dis­pos­i­tion un­less by law he or she is deemed in­cap­able of in­her­it­ance.

2 Be­quests with a des­ig­nated pur­pose to groups of per­sons not con­sti­tut­ing a leg­al en­tity are ac­quired by all such per­sons in­di­vidu­ally with an ob­lig­a­tion to use them as pre­scribed or, where this is not prac­tic­al, give rise to a trust.
