Cap. 16 Art. 858When acceptance may be impeached.

(1) A person who has accepted an inheritance cannot impeach the acceptance, unless such acceptance was the result of violence, or of fraud practised upon him.

(2) Nevertheless, if a will is discovered which, at the time of acceptance, was unknown to the person accepting, such person shall not be bound to discharge the legacies bequeathed in such will beyond the value of the inheritance, saving the reserved portion to which such person may be entitled.
