Modifications to the Code

All the modifications to the law, which are made in the future on matters contained in the Civil Code, shall be considered as being part thereof and inserted at the proper place, whether by replacement of the altered articles, or by deletion of repealed articles or by adding those which are necessary. All the provisions of the Civil Code, the enforcement of which is dependent absolutely on the existence of law offices or other institutions which have not been created, shall be effective only when such offices start functioning. Juridical capacity is acquired by birth; but an individual, as soon as conceived, comes under the protection of law, and is treated as having been born for the purposes mentioned in this Code.
