 Amongst a married couple, the husband is the head. He selects the residence and gives directions regarding the provision of support and maintenance.

If living together would endanger the health or would much destroy the peace of a husband or wife, the party to be endangered or injured may request a court to permit him or her to live separately during the existence of such incident. In this event, the court may designate an amount of maintenance to be paid by one party to the other party as appropriate for the circumstances.

If a wife has been carrying a profession out since before the marriage, she may continue to carry it out without having to obtain the consent of her husband.

If a court adjudges a husband or wife incompetent or quasi-incompetent, the wife or husband becomes custodian or curator by operation of law.

When an interested person or public prosecutor makes a request and if there is a significant reason, the court may appoint a different person as custodian or curator.
