This decision sheds important light on your property law. Here is what it changes for you.
The situation
A ground of appeal may not be raised for the first time before the Court of Cassation arguing that ordinary payment actions, brought by a creditor against a debtor whose judicial settlement or winding-up has been ordered, even before the declaratory judgment, are mandatorily suspended and replaced by the procedure for filing and verification of debts.
What the law says
This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.
Key points to remember
- Scrupulously observe the statutory time limits for appeals
- Keep all your supporting documents (deeds, instruments, letters)
- Anticipate: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
