"Separation Of Patrimony" is a word in LAW AND LEGAL

In Louisiana probate law. The creditors of the succession may demand, In every case and against every creditor of the heir, a separation of the property of the succession from that of the heir. This is what is called the ”separation of patrimony.” The object of a separation of patrimony is to prevent property out of which a particular class of creditors have a right to be paid from being confounded with other property, and by that means made liable to the debts of another class of creditors.
