A minor who has reached the age of sixteen and is not emancipated may dispose only by will, and only up to the amount of half of the property which the law allows an adult to dispose of.
However, if he is called up for a campaign of war, he may, for the duration of hostilities, dispose of the same share as if he were of full age, in favour of any one of his parents or of several of them and up to and including the sixth degree, or in favour of his surviving spouse.
In the absence of parents up to and including the sixth degree, the minor may dispose as an adult would.
