Article 680 of the French Code of civil procedure

The document notifying a party of a judgment must indicate very clearly the time limit for lodging an objection, an appeal or an appeal in cassation in the event that one of these means of appeal is open, as well as the procedures by which the appeal may be exercised; it must also indicate that the author of an abusive or dilatory appeal may be ordered to pay a civil fine and compensation to the other party.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 680

L’acte de notification d’un jugement à une partie doit indiquer de manière très apparente le délai d’opposition, d’appel ou de pourvoi en cassation dans le cas où l’une de ces voies de recours est ouverte, ainsi que les modalités selon lesquelles le recours peut être exercé ; il indique, en outre, que l’auteur d’un recours abusif ou dilatoire peut être condamné à une amende civile et au paiement d’une indemnité à l’autre partie.
