This decision provides important insight into your property law rights. Here is what it changes for you.
The situation
Must be declared inadmissible pursuant to Article 607 of the new Code of Civil Procedure, the appeal lodged against the decision of a Court of Appeal which implicitly dismisses the plea of inadmissibility raised by the insurer of a construction company declared in a state of judicial liquidation, based on the lack of standing of the company which sold to third parties the houses affected by defects, to bring an action for repair thereof, and which merely confirms the judgment under appeal which had declared the action admissible and ordered an expert appraisal before ruling on the merits.
What the law says
This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.
Key points to remember
- Strictly comply with the statutory time limits for appeals
- Keep all your supporting documents (title deeds, contracts, correspondence)
- Plan ahead: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
