ADOPTION STRICTLY BETWEEN ADOPTER AND ADOPTED:

     If adopting parent should die before adopted child, the latter cannot represent the adopter in the inheritance from the parents and ascendants of the adopter. Adopted child is not related to the deceased in that case because filiation created by fiction of law is exclusive between adopted and adopter. By adoption, the adopters can make for themselves an heir but they cannot make one for their relatives.
