Under the Civil Code, widows and single women (no longer minors) enjoy the legal status of men.Considering the articles of the Civil Code in the order in which they appear, the Local Council submits the advisability of amending various articles, taken up under the following headings, and accompanied by suggestions and reasons for the same.Read automatically; may contain mistakes.
