  • Title: Civil Code (Amendment) Act, 1988 (No. 4 of 1988), 21 May 1988.
    Author: Saint Lucia.
    Journal: Annu Rev Popul Law; 1988; 15():68. PubMed ID: 12289655.
    Abstract:
    This Act amends the Civil Code of Saint Lucia to do the following, among other things: 1) allow marriage to be celebrated by giving notice; 2) legalize divorce; 3) allow all children to be legitimated by the subsequent marriage of their parents; 4) remove differences in the treatment of children born within marriage and those born outside of marriage; 5) lower to 18 the age of majority and the age under which consent must be obtained in order to marry. A number of these changes are consolidations of earlier amendments made to the Civil Code.
