Full text
676. Where the privileged collaterals who inherit are fully related by blood to the deceased, they share equally or by roots, as the case may be.
Where this is not the case, the share which devolves to them is divided equally between the paternal line and the maternal line of the deceased or the lines related to each of his parents; persons fully related by blood partake in both lines and those half related by blood partake each in his own line.
If the privileged collaterals are in one line only, they inherit the entire succession to the exclusion of all other ascendants and ordinary collaterals in the other line.
1991, c. 64, a. 676; 2022, c. 22, s. 116.
