Article 1573 of the French Civil Code

Existing property is fictitiously combined with property not included in the original patrimony and disposed of by the spouse by gift inter vivos without the spouse’s consent, as well as property fraudulently alienated by the spouse. Disposal by way of life annuity or outright gift is presumed to have been made in fraud of the spouse’s rights, if the spouse has not consented.

Article 1573

Aux biens existants on réunit fictivement les biens qui ne figurent pas dans le patrimoine originaire et dont l’époux a disposé par donation entre vifs sans le consentement de son conjoint, ainsi que ceux qu’il aurait aliénés frauduleusement. L’aliénation à charge de rente viagère ou à fonds perdu est présumée faite en fraude des droits du conjoint, si celui-ci n’y a consenti.
