Course Content
The Module of Family Law II at the Uganda Christian University embraces two important
aspects of Domestic Relations law, i.e. the Law relating to Children and the law relating to
Succession. Having had an exposure into the fundamental legal concepts of the Family as a unit
in Society under Family Law I, the student is expected to feed those principles learnt in the first
semester by placing them within the context of having Children in the family as well as within the
context of legal considerations that arise under situations of death in the family, i.e. the law of
Succession.

1
Course Aim
By the end of this Course, students should be equipped with legal knowledge on children
generally, starting from the right to life up to the right to inherit property. Under the Law of
Succession, students will learn about testate and intestate succession; i.e. how to write wills,
factors that invalidate wills, revocation of wills and what to do when a person dies without
writing a valid will. Interpretation of wills is also covered. Procedure of applying for letters of
administration of an estate and probate proceedings are also dealt with.

Course objectives
By the end of this study, you should be able to;
- Appreciate the importance and relevance of a child within the family, as well as the legal
values and principles attached to looking after a child or sharing a household with a child.
Custody, Guardianship, Adoption.

- Understand the obligations placed upon families upon the death of an individual within
the family, more so, the head of the family.

- Discuss various legal options available and principles that go with the existence or
validity of a Will or non existence of the same at the demise of the family head. This
gives consideration of the socio-economic realities in Uganda, such as the progressive
evolution from an extended family system to the nuclear family.

- Explain the key contents of a will and importance. How wills can be invalidated or
revoked. Understand the legal consequences of not leaving behind a valid will

- Identify relevant documents and practice the Drafting of relevant documents in each
topic. Documents for custody application, guardianship application, adoption application,
application for probate, letters of administration etc.
