The debtor’s spouse who, at the time of his or her marriage, in the year of the marriage or in the following year, was a farmer or exercised a commercial or craft activity or any other independent professional activity, may not bring any action in the safeguard proceedings on the basis of benefits made by one of the spouses to the other, in the marriage contract or during the marriage. Creditors, for their part, may not take advantage of benefits made by one spouse to the other.
