حفظ مال المفقود في القانون الجزائري

Abstract EN

The missing person is an ent one whose place, life or death are unknown.

This status is required only through a legal sentence after which some consequences are applied on his wife and properties.

Thus, this property is preserved according to the Algerian legislator by the judge who appoints a representative to manage it neglecting the matter whether the missing person had already left an agent before his disappearance.

Whereas, the provisions that organize the missing person's properties are distributed under the minor's properties management despite the specificities of each, since the former might be judged as a dead by the court while the latter will reach the puberty as an adult.

The representative is legally charged with the management of the missing one's property, but in case of default or destruction of the property, he is entrusted with civil and penal liability.
