Art. 473 ZGB

Unabhängig von einer allfälligen Verfügung über den verfügbaren Teil kann der Erblasser dem überlebenden Ehegatten, der überlebenden eingetragenen Partnerin oder dem überlebenden eingetragenen Partner durch Verfügung von Todes wegen gegenüber den gemeinsamen Nachkommen die Nutzniessung am ganzen ihnen zufallenden Teil der Erbschaft zuwenden.

Diese Nutzniessung tritt an die Stelle des dem Ehegatten, der eingetragenen Partnerin oder dem eingetragenen Partner neben diesen Nachkommen zustehenden gesetzlichen Erbrechts. Neben dieser Nutzniessung beträgt der verfügbare Teil die Hälfte des Nachlasses.

Heiratet der überlebende Ehegatte wieder oder begründet er eine eingetragene Partnerschaft, so entfällt die Nutzniessung auf jenem Teil der Erbschaft, der im Zeitpunkt des Erbgangs nach den ordentlichen Bestimmungen über den Pflichtteil der Nachkommen nicht hätte mit der Nutzniessung belastet werden können. Diese Bestimmung gilt sinngemäss, wenn die überlebende eingetragene Partnerin oder der überlebende eingetragene Partner eine neue eingetragene Partnerschaft begründet oder heiratet.
