Synthèse Legislator

Généré par l'IA

The Cour de cassation upheld the conclusion that an end-user is not obligated to pay subscription fees during the minimum service period. The operator argued for immediate disconnection upon non-payment, but the court found the statutory provision requiring a free limited service phase mandatory. Consequently, the court ruled that the operator must provide this service before cutting the connection entirely.

Regeste Legislator

Généré par l'IA

Articles 119, §1, first paragraph, and §2, third paragraph, of the Law of 13 June 2005 on electronic communications; the operator must provide a free limited service during the minimum period before full disconnection, exempting the end-user from subscription fees during this phase.
