Successor Representation as a Civil Law Institution in the New Regulations of the Civil Code

Abstract

The civil law branch includes several legal institutions, each of which has its role and relevance. Whether they belong to the civil law of obligations, contracts, or civil law of succession, they assert their major importance in legal reports that are born, modified, extinguished, and transformed every day and every second in society. Within the framework of civil law, the successor has affirmed its importance, among the multitude of legal institutions, the Institution of Successor Representation; Succession representation as an institution of civil law and other institutions of civil law of succession is always current, as long as people are mortal and some subjects inherit them. Even more so, if we are to go from the general to the special, the institution of succession representation, through its specifics, asserts its importance in the protection it offers to the heirs of deceased heirs, who for objective reasons cannot inherit.
