Disposition over assets as a whole

(1) A spouse may enter into obligation only with the consent of the other spouse to dispose over their assets as a whole. Where a spouse has entered into this obligation without the approval of the other spouse, they may comply with the obligation only if the other spouse consents.

(2) Where the transaction is in keeping with the principles of proper management, the family court, on application by the spouse, may substitute the approval of the other spouse if the latter refuses it without adequate cause or if they are prevented by illness or absence from making a declaration and delay entails risk.
