613. The succession of a person opens by his death, at the place of his last domicile.
The succession devolves according to the prescriptions of the law unless the deceased has, by testamentary provisions, provided otherwise for the devolution of his property. Gifts mortis causa are, in that respect, testamentary provisions.
