Liquidation, sharing and practices of successions in DR CONGO

By: Badiambuji, William Kabeya

Succession is frequently the occasion of family battles, often, if not always, with consequences to be feared. This should be a priority for the legislator who, in his work, should constantly keep in mind that: the law of succession is a fragile material, like glassware, it breaks if it is imported from far away. Indeed, if he wishes to improve the lot of Congolese heirs, he must avoid that his Law has a Law only in name, while on the ground, it is only a generous and powerless utopia to solve the problems for which it was voted. The reflections contained in this book will help it to do so, in particular by re-establishing equality and equity in inheritance, without which the expected post-mortem peace will never be achieved. Without intending to have solved all the questions of Congolese civil law of succession, this book provokes a new debate which will be the basis in doctrinal opinion, of studies likely to enlighten the steps of the legislator in the next codification of Congolese family law.
