742.1. A child born as a result of sexual assault is considered a descendant in the first degree of the person who committed the assault, despite the absence of a bond of filiation with regard to that person, for the execution of the person’s testamentary provisions or those of the person’s relatives, subject to the sufficient expression by the testator of a different intention.
Sexual assault may be proved, among other means, by the production of a judgment recognizing its existence.
