§ 1545. Delivery of movables under security by oath

If the usufructuary who has not given security demands, under security given by oath (caucion juratoria), the delivery of the furniture necessary for his use, and that a room in some house included in the usufruct be assigned to him and his family, the Court of First Instance may grant his petition, after a consideration of the circumstances of the case.

The same shall be understood as regards instruments, implements and other movables necessary for the industry in which he is employed.

If the owner does not wish that certain pieces of furniture be sold, either by reason of their artistic worth or because they have a special value in his eyes (precio de afeccion), he may demand their delivery to him upon giving security for the payment of the legal interest on their appraised value.
