Marriage promises fulfilment and bliss.
In this issue, I deal with the matrimonial regimes available to engaged couples. There are two matrimonial regimes available to the parties, one being marriage in community of property and the other marriage out of community of property. Marriage In Community of Property Marriage at common law creates community of property and of profit and loss. It results in a universal economic partnership between the spouses. Marriages in community of property find little favour save among the poor where the choice is in any event of little financial consequence.
