Will is a personal act

A will is a personal act. It shall not be lawful to make a will through an attorney nor to leave it to the discretion of another person, either as regards the institution of heirs or appointment of legatees or as regards the subject matter of the inheritance or as regards the execution of the will. However, the testator may entrust the partition or the inheritance to a third party when he institutes or appoints a class of persons as heirs or legatees.
