| | Civil Code of Quebec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Civil Code of Quebec was a complete restatement of the civil law in Quebec as of the date of its adoption including judicial interpretation of codal provisions that include broad privacy and personality rights protection and the adoption of a section on the patrimony of affectation. |  | | The Civil Code of Québec (CcQ) is the legal text defining civil laws in the province of Quebec, Canada. |  | | The reform process that led to the replacement of the Civil Code of Lower Canada by the Civil Code of Quebec was one of the largest legislative recodification undertakings in any civil law jurisdiction. |

 | | The Sierra O'Reilly's Draft of a Civil Code was adopted and enacted as the Civil Code of the State of Veracruz in 1861. |  | | The Civil Code of 1870 is uniformly characterized as the seminal document which enunciated for the first time, in a methodic and systematic manner, the legal corpus of Mexican Civil Law. |  | | Civil law -whose essence is found in the civil code, as seen earlier- is eminently a body of principles and rules that govern the relations between and among individuals. |

 | | Again, Civil Code section 2848, which provides for the subrogation of a surety to the remedies which the creditor has against the principal, was held not an exclusive measure of the surety's rights, and the common law rule permitting subrogation to the equities of the principal under certain circumstances still obtained. |  | | The lengthy Civil Code provisions relating to general and limited partnerships were recodified in the Corporations Code in 1949,111 a deletion compensated in part by the addition in the same year of the Uniform Divorce Recognition Law. |  | | The Civil Code was silent with regard to underground water rights, and thereby left the way open for the growth of a large body of new doctrine in that field; while the early growth of the law of labor relations was also mainly in the judicial forum. |
