Judicial Liability Recourse Ruling
France (FR)
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAAn individual sought authorization from the First President of the Court of Appeal to hold a party against a Chamber President of that court, grounding the request on former articles of the Code of Civil Procedure concerning the liability of judges. The First President declared this request inadmissible, a decision upheld by the higher court because the relevant former articles had ceased to apply following the 1979 Organic Law, which established that judicial liability for personal faults related to judicial service could henceforth only be pursued through a right of recourse by the State. Therefore, the initial order deeming the request inadmissible was legally justified, and the appeal was rejected.
