The insurer must submit any proposed transaction involving a minor or an adult under guardianship to the guardianship judge or the family council, which is competent to authorise it, depending on the case. The insurer must also give notice without formality to the guardianship judge, at least fifteen days in advance, of the payment of the first instalment of an annuity or of any sum to be paid by way of compensation to the legal representative of the protected person.
A payment that has not been preceded by the required notice or a transaction that has not been authorised may be cancelled at the request of any interested party or the Public Prosecutor, with the exception of the insurer.
Any clause by which the legal representative vouches for the ratification by the minor or the adult under guardianship of one of the acts mentioned in the first paragraph of this article is null and void.
