The employee to whom the right is recognised

This decision sheds important light on your property law. Here is what it changes for you.

The situation

The employee who is recognised as having the right to bring proceedings against the institutions referred to in Article L. 143-11-4 of the Labour Code, where those institutions refuse to pay a debt appearing on the statement of wage claims, is entitled to join those same institutions in the proceedings in order to have them ordered to guarantee the debt, which, upon his claim, would be held to be required to appear on the said statement.

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, instruments, correspondence)
• Anticipate: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
