El matrimonio en sede notarial. Reformas necesarias.

Abstract

In other countries, many years ago, marriages were celebrated before the Notaries, in ours, it is impossible. Marriage is a solemn contract between a man and a woman, and those who must manifest their willingness to marry are the contracting parties and the authorized public official is the Chief of the Civil Registry or his delegate, that is, if the Chief of the Civil Registry that is a public official can solemnize the marriage, it could be done by a Notary. The marriage celebrated before Notary would be one more possibility for the citizen, who should choose between celebrating his marriage before a public official of the Civil Registry or before a Notary in the canton of his residence. Here is the reason for my investigation, if at present before the Civil Registry you can dissolve a free union, you should also allow notaries to celebrate or solemnize marriages of people, since they should observe the same solemnities which is required for the conclusion of the marriage contract. The work presented is eminently legal and consists of a proposal that will improve the public service for the acquisition of a new civil status such as marriage. In the Master's we study the new currents of Notary Law, which include new powers that in Ecuador must be made effective.
