Summary


Implementation of the amended Act of 1 June 1924 bringing into force French civil law in the departments of Bas-Rhin, Haut-Rhin and Moselle, including articles 36 to 65. Act 2002-306 of 4 March 2002 amended the provisions of the Act of 1 June 1924 relating to the land advertising regime applicable in the three departments of Alsace and Moselle. The purpose of this reform was on the one hand, on the adaptation of the rules organizing the land book to the computerization that is under way, on the other hand on the harmonization of local law with general law and on the strengthening of the reliability of land advertising. The coming into force of several legislative provisions depends on the publication of a decree in the Council of State. However, for some of them, such as Article 1 §III - (amended Article 37 of the Land Book Consultation Act, 1924), their implementation is also linked to the practical realization of the computerization of land registers and offices. However, with respect to strictly legal provisions, their entry into force is not necessary to be postponed. With respect to section 6 of the Act, relating to the registration of constituted land bonds before 1900, an excessive delay in its implementation would even be likely to prejudice the beneficiaries of such servitudes (section 1). The other issues contemplated in the decree relate, on the one hand, to the registration of a right acquired by prescription or by accession provided for in Article 1, §VII (amendment of Article 44-1 of the Law of 1924), on the other hand on the way of appeal against the decision of the judge of the land book (articles 2 and 3). Finally, it is intended to extend the benefit of Article 1 §VIII (amended in Article 45 of the Act of 1924) relating to the effects of the filing of the application for registration, to provisions providing for registration, other than those referred to in the chapter on the land advertising of the law of June 1, 1924 (Article 4). In addition, like the law of 4 March 2002 which amended the law of 1 June 1924, this draft decree provides for the insertion of the new regulations in two existing decrees, namely, on the one hand, the decree of 18 November 1924 relating to the holding of the land book in the departments of Lower Rhine, Upper Rhine and Moselle, on the other hand the decree of 14 January 1927 November Indeed, the German legislator has only progressively put in place land advertising, leaving, as a transitional measure, the possibility of maintaining the effects on third parties of conventional land bonds not registered in the land book, but only transcribed before 1 January 1900 on the mortgage register held by the competent mortgage office (Law of introduction to the civil code of 18 August 1896 article) Today, in order to guarantee the completeness of land advertising, section 6 of the Act of 4 March 2002 has provided, barely extinguished, their retranscription within five years of the promulgation of the law. This Order provides information on the content of the request in relation to the general rules applicable to this Act, lists the supporting documents and requires the applicant to inform the applicant of the request. In addition, it is planned to insert this new provision in the decree of 14 January 1927, following article 14 which already allows the holder of a right registered on the mortgage registers to request his registration in the land book by the production of an official certificate or an extract from the mortgage register.* Content of the requestIn addition to the information common to all requests set out in Articles 3, 4 and 5 of the decree of 14 January 1927, the request must specify the current cadastral identification of the serving fund and the dominant fund (Article 1).* Enumeration of supporting documentsThe supporting documents must accompany the application are the authentic act establishing the constitution of the law or recognizing the existence of that right or any other evidence establishing the advertisement of the right to the register of mortgages under the conditions defined by section 187 of the Act of 18 August 1896 introducing the local civil code providing for the transcription of servitudes to the register of mortgages. In view of the formerity of the law, the draft decree offers the applicant the opportunity to prove the existence of the right by other means of evidence that an extract from the mortgage register or the notarial act establishing the constitution of the right.* Information of the holders of the right of property concerned by servitudeThe applicant has an obligation to inform the holders of the right of property concerned by servitude, of his application for registration.In order that the completion of this formality is certain, it must be carried out before the application is filed. The objective of this publicity measure is to allow interested parties to take action on this servitude. II - The registration of a right acquired by statute or by accessionIn a view of harmonization with the general law of land advertising, the law of 4 March 2002 now allows to derogate from the principle of the relative effect of registration, by authorizing the publication of a right acquired by statute or by accession, without distinguishing, as was done in article 44, paragraph 3, of the law of 1 June 1924, according to whether or not the law had already been the subject matter. Secondly, given the special probative force attached to the registration of rights to the land book, defined as a presumption of accuracy, the decree makes a distinction as to whether or not the law is already registered and provides, where the right is already registered on behalf of another owner, to ensure the information of the judge of the land book by a number of advertising measures available to it. In the latter case, the decree specifies the effect of the decision to register the right acquired by prescription or accession to the previously registered right, namely the deletion of the latter.* Advertising measuresThese are found to be their legal basis and inspiration on the one hand, in the distance 55-4 of 4 January 1955 concerning legal and judicial announcements, on the other hand in Decree 2002-77 of 11 January 2002 taken for the application of Article 697 of the Civil Procedure Code (former) and reforming the terms of advertising in respect of real estate seizure. They consist, first of all, of interrogating the Public Prosecutor's Office. Secondly, depending on the value and situation of the property, other measures may be ordered by the Land Book Judge.These are three, the priority to be given to posting at the Land Office Registry and, according to the law of January 4, 1955, to the publication in a legal advertisement journal at the expense of the Grievor, the last of the possibilities offered to the judge, being the display in the town of the place where the property is registered. III - Provisions relating to appealThe entry into force of the law and in particular its article l- §VII (amended in article 45 of the law of 1924) which specifies the effects of the filing of the request, has highlighted the need to clarify the current procedure contained in articles 52, 53 and 54 of the decree of November 18, 1924, concerning remedies. The procedure applicable to the judge of the land book and the appeal fall under the purity of the law (Article 46 of the Act of 1 June 1924 and the annex to the new Code of Civil Procedure relating to its application in the departments of Bas-Rhin, Haut-Rhin and Moselle). The appeal is governed, inter alia, by the provisions of Articles 95OE to 953 of the new Civil Procedure Code, subject to the rules specific to the Alsace-Moselle Land Advertising. Furthermore, it should be recalled that the date of filing a request determines its status. However, the decision to reject a request has lost any effect on this request, particularly in respect of its filing date; Therefore, if the decision of appeal invalidates the decision of rejection, the registration shall only take place on the date it is made materially; This is not without raising any inconvenience when new registrations took place between time.So far, the Decree of 1924 gave the Court of Appeal the power to order a prenotation of the law, that is, a provisional registration of the law, allowing the Court to safeguard its rank until the decision of appeal. However, this mechanism was questionable as the date of entry was left at the discretion of the courts. The new system, advocated by this draft decree, makes it possible to remedy this difficulty, the law providing that the rank of registration is determined by the mention of the filing of the request, that is, the introductory act of instance, the same effects are attached to the declaration of the appeal which, like the request, opens a new proceeding. In this way, the appellant is entrusted with the care to determine the date of determination of the rank (art. 3). In addition, in order to facilitate reading, it is planned to rewrite articles 52, 53 and 54 of the decree of 18 November 1924 in their entirety. IV - The effects of registrationIn keeping with the new legal framework established by the Harmonization Act of 4 March 2002, which enshrines the legal effect of the registration of petitions thus to put an end to the jurisprudential uncertainties which linked the legal effects of the registration of a right to the material registration operation, the decree proposes to extend the benefit of this effect, to the registrations provided for in articles 145 relating to the order 14 of an art. 14-1, after art. 18 of art. 18-1, 18-2 and 18- 3.Change of the decree of 18-11-1924: addition after art. 6 of an art. 6-1, art replacement. 11 and 52, repeal of articles 53 and 54.
