从民法的角度看连体人的分离权

The Separation Right of the Conjoined Twins

分离权是连体人特有的人格权,它是维护连体人个体独立存在的必然,是连体人个体充分享受自由的前提。连体人的分离权具有共有、依附、有限支配等法律属性,它的行使应遵循"不侵害生命原则"、"牺牲性分离须具正当性和合法性原则"、"子女最大利益原则"以及"法院最终决定原则"等。

The right to separate is a right of personality unique to the conjoined twins. For the conjoined twins such a right is a necessity to sustain their autonomous and independent existence as well as a prerequisite for their enjoyment of complete freedom. Generally speaking, the separation right of the conjoined twins is characterized by such legal attributes as co-ownership, inter-dependence and limited accessibility. To exercise the separation right should therefore abide by some important principles, including ＂non-infringement of the life of the other part＂, ＂sacrificial separation under justice and legitimacy＂, ＂maximum interests for the filial＂, and finally, the ＂final decision of the court＂.
