Obligation Validity Prior to Guardianship Appointment

The case concerns a dispute over the validity of an obligation entered into by an individual who was subsequently placed under guardianship due to mental incapacity, with the claim being that the obligation was null because the necessary authorization for the transaction was not obtained from the guardian or the supervising judge, despite the obligation being executed *before* the formal judicial decision establishing the incapacity and appointing the guardian. The court ruled to reject the appeal, reasoning that nullity requires the absence of authorization at the time of the act, and since the judicial decision establishing the incapacity and ordering protection was rendered subsequent to the transaction, the act was not voidable under the relevant law governing acts performed by individuals subsequently placed under guardianship.
