Resolution terminates the contract.
Resolution takes effect, depending on the case, either under the conditions provided for by the resolutory clause, or on the date of receipt by the debtor of the notification made by the creditor, or on the date fixed by the judge or, failing that, on the date of the summons to appear in court.
Where the services exchanged could only find their usefulness through the full performance of the terminated contract, the parties must return in full what they have procured from each other. Where the services exchanged found their utility as the contract was performed reciprocally, there is no need for restitution for the period prior to the last service not having received its counterpart; in this case, the resolution is qualified as termination.
Restitution takes place under the conditions set out in articles 1352 to 1352-9.
