168. Where any person having a minor is dead, or the father or mother having such minor has entered into another house by his or her marriage or any other cause, the Local Court shall, on demand of such minor's relatives by consanguinity or those interested, convene the family council for the appointment of a guardian.
224. The interdicted person is subjected to guardianship.
Each spouse becomes as of course the guardian of the other. Where there is no spouse, the father in the house becomes the guardian, and if there is no father, the mother who can exercise the parental power becomes the same.
The father or mother can nominate a guardian in accordance with the formalities provided for in Article 165. When the nomination has not taken place, the provision of Article 166 is applicable.
Where there is neither a legal guardian nor guardian by will, or where they have been exempted, excluded or dismissed, the family council selects a guardian in accordance with the formalities provided for in Chapter X.
