Placing a person under judicial receivership and prohibiting him from disposing of his property.

The appointed receiver exercises this right on his behalf. Bringing the action against the owner of the property rather than the judicial receiver. Effect. Inadmissibility of the action because it was brought against a person lacking the requisite capacity.
