Title IV — Property Relations Between Husband and Wife
Article 143
ELI5— what this means for you
Spouses who have judicial separation of property may agree to re-establish the conjugal/community property regime only by going back to court and getting a formal order to do so. They cannot simply agree privately.
Official text — EO 209
Should the future spouses agree in the marriage settlements that their property relations during marriage shall be governed by the regime of separation of property, the provisions of this Chapter shall be suppletory. (212a)
