Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's dismissal of the plaintiff's claim due to the statute of limitations. The lower court applied Article 442 § 1 of the Civil Code, which the Constitutional Court had previously declared unconstitutional, despite a temporary suspension of its invalidity. The Supreme Court ruled that courts cannot base judgments on laws deemed unconstitutional, thereby violating the right to a fair trial and the principle of legal certainty.
