Abstract

The act of abrenunciation (renunciation) was a commonly practiced legal action before the Polish courts for nobles, conducted by a woman upon contracting marriage, or entering a convent. It consisted of acknowledgment receipt of a dowry by the husband or convent, and of the woman’s renunciation of any further rights to the family estate. The statement, according to the chancellery standards, was to be presented orally for the record in the court for nobles. The legal effect of abrenunciation was the surrender of any and all further claims to the inheritance against the current owners of the family estate.
