Description The legal framework for the protection and empowerment of vulnerable persons in the Czech Republic has already been reformed. The Civil Code devotes considerable attention to this issue in the General Part (Book I). The protection of vulnerable persons is also reflected in the part of the Civil Code governing Family Law (Book II.). Special provisions protecting vulnerable persons are found in the part of the Civil Code dedicated to Property Rights and Succession, in particular about the “incapacity to make disposition mortis causa” (Book III). In the part regulating obligations, related issues are addressed specifically in provisions governing donation and the delictual capacity of vulnerable persons (Book IV).
