Swiss Civil Code

¹ The test­at­or may at­tach bur­dens or con­di­tions to the dis­pos­i­tion, the ful­fil­ment of which may be re­ques­ted by any in­ter­ested party once the dis­pos­i­tion be­comes ef­fect­ive.

² Im­mor­al or un­law­ful bur­dens or con­di­tions render the dis­pos­i­tion null and void.

³ Where they are merely oner­ous to third parties or mean­ing­less, they are deemed not to ex­ist.

⁴ If an an­im­al re­ceives a be­quest by dis­pos­i­tion mor­tis causa, this dis­pos­i­tion is deemed to be a bur­den by which the an­im­al must be cared for ac­cord­ing to its needs.⁵¹⁹
