Violates Articles 17 and 18 of the Law

Practical application:

Under the case law, a provisional administrator cannot simply continue annulled works without specifying the conditions of that continuation and how the new contract with the project manager was concluded. Request the minutes of any decision approving the works and the project manager contract. If none exist, contest the levy in writing to the syndic and, if necessary, seek a court order to have the charge invalidated. Gather evidence such as the annulment judgment and correspondence with the administrator.

Practical application:

Vous pouvez exiger du syndic qu'il convoque une assemblée générale pour régulariser la situation, en vous appuyant sur l'obligation de préciser les conditions de la poursuite des travaux selon cet arrêt. En l'absence de régularisation, vous pouvez refuser de payer votre quote-part et solliciter des dommages-intérêts pour le préjudice subi. Il est recommandé d'adresser une mise en demeure écrite et de conserver toutes les preuves de l'annulation antérieure.

Practical application:

This case clarifies that a provisional administrator cannot be held harmless for continuing annulled works unless the court specifies how the continuation was decided and the contract was concluded. As a new owner, you are liable for charges voted before your purchase, but if the works lacked proper authorisation, you can dispute the debt. Ask the seller for the administrator's decisions and any court rulings. If no valid justification exists, refuse payment and seek legal advice to annul the levy.
