Abstract

The institution of family assets, incorporated into the Civil Code by Law 19.335 of 1994, had as its main objective to protect, both at the request of a party and in the event of any type, both the main residence property of the family (understood as such arising of a civil marriage) as the movable property that garnish, generating a series of limitations on the possibility of disposing of the goods affected to this quality. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out an analysis that allows to reconcile, by means of the review of legislative, doctrinal and jurisprudential antecedents, the scope of this institution of family law with the recognition of the property right that article 19 No. 24 of the Political Constitution of the Republic.
