This decision provides important insight into your property law rights. Here is what it changes for you.
The situation
By classifying an agreement as a finance lease (crédit-bail), the trial judges do not contravene either the regulations governing this contract or the rules of consent, provided that the agreement providing for the purchase of the equipment by the owner-lessor and its lease to the user was concluded prior to delivery to the latter, and subsequently, after delivery and due to the lateness of that delivery, was only subject to a simple adjustment of certain conditions.
What the law says
This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.
Key takeaways
- Strictly comply with the statutory time limits for appeals
- Keep all your supporting documents (deeds, instruments, correspondence)
- Be proactive: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
