The curator of an interdict may ratify, under Article 4566, and by proceeding in accordance with Article 4271, of the Code of Civil Procedure, any sale made on behalf of his ward while the latter was a minor, if the sale was one which could have been made legally at that time and was made by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.  Sales so ratified are as valid and binding upon the interdict and his heirs as if such sales had been authorized and conducted validly.
