Q

Canon 124

A

For the validity of a juridical act, it is required that it be performed by a person who is legally capable (habili), and it must contain those elements which constitute the essence of the act, as well as the formalities and requirements which the law proscribes for the validity of the act.

A juridic act which is properly performed is presumed to be valid.

So, takes three elements for validity: (1) capax and habilitas (2) constitutive elements (3) formalities and requisites imposed by law
