Section 2: Exceptions to the rule that gifts inter vivos are irrevocable.

The property and rights included in the revoked donation revert to the donor’s patrimony, free of all charges and mortgages on the part of the donee, without being able to remain assigned, even subsidiarily, to the legal mortgage of the spouses; this is so even if the donation was made in favour of the donee’s marriage and inserted in the marriage contract.

The death of the donor’s child has no effect on the revocation of gifts provided for in Article 960.

The donor may, at any time, waive the right to exercise the revocation for the occurrence of a child.

An action for revocation is barred after five years from the birth or adoption of the last child. It may only be brought by the donor.
