About this title

Synopsis

"Civil Code Of The State Of Louisiana: Preceded By The Treaty Of Cession With France, The Constitution Of The United States Of America, And Of The State". This densely cross-referenced index collects civil-law topics and maps them to the corresponding statutes and procedural rules. It outlines core domains such as contracts and obligations, property and possession, servitudes and rights in rem, usufruct, family law and tutorship, marriage and dowry, inheritance and succession, and the administration of donors, heirs, and executors. The material includes sections on creditors’ rights, security interests, and insolvency, along with judicature and procedure, illustrating how the Napoleonic-Louisiana civil code structured persons, property, families, and social relations. The text presents articles and cross-references, often with article numbers, within an era-focused codification that blends civil-law concepts with early U.S. constitutional and state frameworks. It serves as a dense reference tool for scholars and practitioners seeking to understand historical Louisiana civil law, its interfaces with public law, and its approach to contracts, property transfers, and security.
