A PRIMER ON CLAIMS OF SPOUSES IN LOUISIANA.

This Article is the sixth in a series of primers on Louisiana Family Law. The Louisiana Civil Code of 1870, as amended to date, operates as the primary source of law, with other ancillary statutes and codes on particular subject matters. The law of claims of spouses appears in three different parts of the Code. First, claims of spouses for support during the marriage are found in Chapter 3 in Title IV on Husband and Wife. Second, claims of spouses for support pending divorce or thereafter are found in Section 1 of Chapter 2 in Title V on Divorce. Finally, claims of spouses for contributions to education or training are found in Section 2 of Chapter 2 in Title V on Divorce. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
