Summary/Abstract: Inheritance agreements have been defined in reference books as those contracts concluded between two or more successors or third parties intended to govern definitively and in advance, one or more successions still unopened, or those conventions through which possible rights over an unopened legacy are totally or partly assigned. The reason to ban legal documents (contracts) on an unopened legacy concerns several aspects. Thus, it was initially argued that the basis of this ban would be one of legislative policy, but also a moral problem because these acts contravene the rules of social coexistence since they may trigger in the contracting party's mind the desire for the death of the one who bequeaths.
