Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to examine relationship between legal norms governing acquisition or separation of household objects of lesser value and relationship between legal effects of registering a non-marital union. Is non-marital partner entitled to acquire or separate such objects according to positive law? Should they be given such rights? In finding answers to these questions the author examines legal solutions provided by the legislation of the countries of former Yugoslavia and legal and theoretical perspectives on this issue. The methodology employed are historical, comparative, socio-legal and normative. Findings show that some of the jurisdictions examined in the research entitle non-marital partner to acquire such objects, while in others such right is rather contentious. With regard to the issue of granting non-marital partners said rights, the author expresses certain doubts, pointing to the arguments for and against such a decision. In either case, the issue of granting non-marital partners right to acquire household objects of lesser value should be regulated more precisely by the inheritance legislation.
