The BGB, running

The German Civil Code as an executable model: every answer names the paragraph, the facts, and what stays with the court.

Ask in plain words

Five recorded conversations: the model reads the question and chooses where to look; every answer came from the engine.

Answers come from the model of the statute, not legal advice.

Change one fact

Worked cases. Every position of a switch is a registered case answered by two independent evaluators.

Intestate succession and the compulsory portionSpouse, stirpes, fractions. The model says who is called and in what fraction, and which money claim remains as Pflichtteil. It does not partition the estate. The BMJ brochure is an external check, not text on this page. Before and after 2002The same claim, read before the modernisation of the law of obligations and after. Pre-2002 law is a model boundary, not silence of the statute. Termination and rent increaseThree steps of the notice period under § 573c, the third working day, the cap of § 558 and the consent period of § 558b. One claim, two centuriesThe same claim in the first edition of 1896 and the living BGB: thirty years against three years from the close of the year. The page lets the engine compute and names the boundary between the texts. One claim, three codesThe same claim under the BGB, the Code civil and the UNIDROIT Principles. Three periods, three effects — the page compares the texts without computing itself.

Count a period

The dates and amounts are yours; the end day and the annual interest come from the engine. The page does not compare dates and does not invent a day-count for a partial year.

Limitation calculatorYour dates: event period, month-end, limitation from year-end, suspension, long-stop, 29 February. State holidays are outside the calendar — a model boundary, because § 193 speaks of the place of performance. Default interestAmount and default date: the rate from the base rate plus five or nine points, interest for one full year, the 40 euro lump sum. For a partial year the BGB names no day-count — the page does not invent one. Withdrawal calculatorDay of receipt and day of withdrawal. Fourteen days, the last day, a weekend with § 193, later information. Whether the withdrawal notice was correct is an input, not a result.

Map of remedies

One breach, two tracks. The page does not pick a preferred remedy.

What remains openDemand or withhold performance; unwind the contract and restore. Open, closed, or left to the court — on one screen.

Ask in plain words

Recorded conversations. The model chooses where to look; every refusal and every hash came from the engine, and the build repeats each call.

Recorded dialogues“Is this contract valid?” refused; hereditary shares in the rules; period-end with § 193; pre-2002 law as a model boundary; the compulsory portion left to the court.

Read the text

For those whose question is whether the model is faithful to the pinned statute, and where it names a limit rather than a rule.

The Civil CodeThe pinned statute, paragraph by paragraph. Highlighted passages are the norms of the model. Source: gesetze-im-internet.de, official work (§ 5 UrhG).
