Family status of Buddhist monk and novice, Betrothal, Marriage, Legitimation, Adoption

Abstract

When a man obtains Buddhist monkhood or ordains as a novice, his family status does not terminate. He is still a child, a husband or a father as he is before obtaining Buddhist monkhood or ordaining as a novice, so he has the rights or duties to maintain his parents or his wife or his child. However, he cannot enter into an engagement or marriage because such doing is contrary to public order or good morals and is void. If he is an illegitimate child, he can take an action for legitimation. Moreover, if he is an illegitimate father, he can take the registration of legitimation. In case of adoption, he cannot be an adopter, but can be the adopted.
