Application pratique:

The Court of Cassation confirms that a managing agent whose functions have ended may not validly convene a meeting. However, any challenge must be made within two months of receiving the minutes. Jean must immediately check when the minutes were posted; if within the two-month limit, he can sue to annul the decisions, citing this case. He should instruct a French property lawyer without delay to avoid the resolutions becoming binding.

Application pratique:

This ruling underlines the critical two-month appeal window from receipt of minutes. Sophie must file a legal challenge before the deadline, arguing the syndic lacked authority to call the meeting. She should collect the minutes, her title deed, and proof of receipt date, then consult a French avocat specialising in co-ownership disputes. If she misses the deadline, the levy and renewal become unchallengeable.

Application pratique:

Marie's ability to challenge rests on whether any co-owner contested the appointment within the two-month period. She should urgently verify this with the syndic or other owners. If no challenge was made in time, the appointment is legally valid and she must pay. If a challenge is ongoing, she could join or initiate her own action, but she must act fast. Seeking immediate legal advice is essential to avoid assuming an undisputed debt.
