CIVIL CODE

SECTION 707-714.5

707. The time when the enjoyment of property is to begin or end may
be determined by computation, or be made to depend on events. In the
latter case, the enjoyment is said to be upon condition.

708. Conditions are precedent or subsequent. The former fix the
beginning, the latter the ending, of the right.

709. If a condition precedent requires the performance of an act
wrong of itself, the instrument containing it is so far void, and the
right cannot exist. If it requires the performance of an act not
wrong of itself, but otherwise unlawful, the instrument takes effect
and the condition is void.
