Evolución de la herencia yacente en el Derecho catalán

Research output: Book chapterChapter

Abstract

In this paper we review the law that have ruled the status of the "herencia yacente" in the Catalan law from the compilation to date, on the premise to see if the functionality or pragmatism that has set the standard in catalan civil law is also detectable in this area. It can be detected at first sight that, on one hand, there appears to be a deliberate lack of dogmatic formulation of the "vacant inheritance", despite being widely discussed and questioned by the doctrine, and, secondly, that even apart from the conceptual design, there has been a progressive increase in attention to the "vacant inheritance" in a functional approach, influenced probably by practical circumstances, particularly those showed in the judgments on this issue has ruled the High Court of Justice of Catalonia, dated 9 October 2000 and October 5, 2005 or appreciated by the doctrine wiht regard to the the Compilation and the Inheritance Code.
