Nasciturus pro iam nato habetur, quotiens de commodis eius agitur
(重定向自Nasciturus)
Nasciturus pro iam nato habetur, quotiens de commodis eius agitur is a Latin phrase which refers to a law which enables a foetus to inherit property. Under this law, the foetus is legally presumed to have been born for the purposes of inheritance. Such laws were common in Roman law and are used today in most European countries, in the Americas (where the fetus is at times legally considered to be a person) and in South Africa.
