Voluntary resumption of cohabitation puts an end to legal separation.
To be enforceable against third parties, it must either be recorded in a notarial deed or be the subject of a declaration to the civil registrar. A mention of this is made in the margin of the marriage certificate of the spouses, as well as in the margin of their birth certificates.
The separation of property subsists unless the spouses adopt a new matrimonial regime in accordance with the rules of article 1397.
