Article 536 of the French Code of civil procedure

The inaccurate characterisation of a judgment by the judges who delivered it shall have no effect on the right to appeal.

If the appeal is declared inadmissible on account of such inaccuracy, the decision of inadmissibility shall be notified by the registry to all the parties to the proceedings in the judgment. This notification shall start running again the time limit for exercising the appropriate appeal.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 536

La qualification inexacte d’un jugement par les juges qui l’ont rendu est sans effet sur le droit d’exercer un recours.

Si le recours est déclaré irrecevable en raison d’une telle inexactitude, la décision d’irrecevabilité est notifiée par le greffe à toutes les parties à l’instance du jugement. Cette notification fait courir à nouveau le délai prévu pour l’exercice du recours approprié.
