Art. 562 Code civil suisse (CC)
CC; Deuxième partie: De la dévolution; Titre seizième: Des effets de la dévolution; Chapitre II: De l’acquisition de la succession; A. Acquisition; III. Légataires; 1. Acquisition du legs
Art. 562 CC
Les légataires ont une action personnelle contre les débiteurs des legs ou, faute de débiteurs spécialement désignés, contre les héritiers légaux ou institués.
Cette action leur appartient, si une intention contraire ne résulte pas du testament, dès que les débiteurs des legs ont accepté la succession ou ne peuvent plus la répudier.
Les héritiers qui ne satisfont pas à leurs obligations envers les légataires peuvent être actionnés soit en délivrance des biens légués, soit en dommages-intérêts si le legs consiste dans l’exécution d’un acte quelconque.
