The landlord who pursues the

Application pratique:

Under Cass. civ. 3, 11 July 2006, no. 05-18.267, the landlord must notify all previously registered creditors of the application to terminate the lease. Obtain a list of registered securities from the commercial court registry (greffe du tribunal de commerce) and formally notify each creditor (e.g., by bailiff) before or alongside your court application. If a creditor offers to pay the arrears and perform the lease obligations, the termination may be refused. Keep proof of notification; failure to notify can invalidate the termination.

Application pratique:

As a registered creditor, you have the right to be notified before termination. Immediately file an intervention in the proceedings, provide your registration certificate, and offer to pay the outstanding rent and costs to keep the lease alive. Request the court to suspend or dismiss the landlord's termination because of the failure to notify you. This decision confirms creditors can perform the lease obligations to avoid forfeiture.

Application pratique:

Because the landlord must notify those registered creditors, you should immediately inform them of the termination proceedings and ask if they are willing to settle the arrears to preserve their security. Negotiate with the landlord for a payment plan and involve the creditors who may prefer to pay rather than lose their collateral. If a creditor performs the obligations, the lease can be maintained, so coordination is key.
