The question of law<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">The question put to the Cour de cassation was: do the provisions of the new law concerning real estate leases apply immediately to current contracts, or only to contracts concluded or renewed after the law came into force?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">In other words, does the six-week period apply to current contracts signed before the law came into force?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">This is a crucial question in real estate law, as it affects legal certainty and the stability of contractual relations between lessors and lessees.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #282828;\">III The solution<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">The Cour de cassation replied that article 10 of the 2023 law, which introduces a six-week deadline for rent payments, has no retroactive effect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">It therefore does not apply to rental contracts in force before the law came into force. The Court thus confirms that existing contracts remain governed by the previous provisions. This decision reinforces the predictability and stability of contracts in the field of real estate law, while clarifying the impact of the new rules on existing leases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">You can consult the decision of the Cour de cassation by following this link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.courdecassation.fr\/decision\/666a8c06c0b8d30008019086?judilibre_juridiction=cc&amp;sort=date-desc&amp;previousdecisionpage=0&amp;previousdecisionindex=3&amp;nextdecisionpage=0&amp;nextdecisionindex=5\">ruling of June 13, 2024 n\u00b024-70.002<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #282828;\">Are you facing rent arrears?
