J. von Staudingers Kommentar zum Bürgerlichen Gesetzbuch mit Einführungsgesetz und Nebengesetzen; Buch 5: Erbrecht; 2303-2345

The reform of the law of succession, which was criticized on many fronts, is closely considered in the revision of §§ 2303-2345. The focus of the new regulations are the modernization of the grounds for withdrawal of the compulsory portion, the dimensions of extension grounds, and the introduction of a flexible term of exclusion of claims for the supplemental compulsory portion. Literature and legislation pertaining to this practice-relevant legal field are comprehensively analyzed.
