Art. 527 a. Cases

The following are subject to abatement in the same manner as testamentary dispositions:

1.: advances against a person’s share of an inheritance made in the form of wedding gifts, settlements or assignments of assets, to the extent these are not subject to hotchpot;
2.: compensation payments in settlement of future rights of inheritance;
3.: gifts that were freely revocable by the deceased or made in the five years prior to his or her death, with the exception of customary occasional gifts;
4.: assets alienated by the deceased with the obvious intention of circumventing the limitations on his or her testamentary freedom.
