In French law if someone inherited a French property would their mentally disabled adoptive sister have any say with regards to selling the property?

By French Law If A Mentally Disabled Adoptive Sister Have A Say In Regards To Any Property?If the daughter was found by doctors to be mentally incapable of making any judgments in her life and this diagnosis is recorded, then the answer is no. However, in all good conscience it is best when one sells property knowing the fact their adopted sister is mentally disabled that they are fair and try to help provide for the mentally disabled adoptive daughter (in other words, split the amount in half and put her half in an interest bearing account for future medical bills and care). It's all about the right thing to do.The French legal system is similar to the US as it requires persons who are mentally disabled or incompetent to receive legal representation (guardian and conservator) appointed by the court to oversee financial and personal matters. In such a case as cited the sister would have legal status as to the disposition of the property through her appointed legal counsel who would then petition the court for approval of any action concerning the property before it could be taken. The mentally disabled sister would, in principle, be represented by a guardian ("tuteur"). That guardian could only object to the sale of the property if such sale caused harm to the adoptive daughter, which is unlikely. The adoptive daughter would be entitled to her share of the sale proceeds, like her brothers/sisters. Source: www.solicitor.fr
