Execution Proceedings: Challenge to Underlying Debt Obligation Based on Lack of Consideration
France (FR)
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA judgment debtor, upon being compelled to pay a debt, challenged the validity of the underlying debt obligation, arguing that the underlying contract lacked consideration. The court rejected this argument, holding that the mere inscription of the debt in an instrument establishing a legal obligation, without further proof to the contrary regarding the initial agreement, sufficed to establish the existence of the obligation, and the challenge to the underlying cause of the debt was therefore inadmissible in the context of the execution proceedings.
