Acts performed and commitments entered into by a person who is the subject of a mandate for future protection that are enforced, during the term of the mandate, may be rescinded for simple lesion or reduced in the event of excess even though they could be annulled by virtue of l’article 414-1. In particular, the courts take into consideration the usefulness or uselessness of the transaction, the size or consistency of the protected person’s assets and the good or bad faith of those with whom they have contracted.
The action belongs only to the protected person and, after his or her death, to his or her heirs. It is extinguished by the five-year period provided for in article 2224.
