Article L211-22 of the French Insurance Code

The provisions of articles L. 211-9, L. 211-10 and L. 211-13 to L. 211-19 are applicable to the fonds de garantie des assurances obligatoires de dommages instituted by article L. 421-1, in its dealings with victims or their rightful claimants; however, the time limits provided for in article L. 211-9 run against the fonds from the day on which it receives the information justifying its intervention.

The application of articles L. 211-13 and L. 211-14 does not preclude the special provisions governing legal action against the fund. Where the guarantee fund is liable for the interest provided for in article L. 211-14, such interest shall be paid to the Treasury.

Article L211-22

Les dispositions des articles L. 211-9, L. 211-10 et L. 211-13 à L. 211-19 sont applicables au fonds de garantie des assurances obligatoires de dommages institué par l’article L. 421-1, dans ses rapports avec les victimes ou leurs ayants droit ; toutefois, les délais prévus à l’article L. 211-9 courent contre le fonds à compter du jour où celui-ci a reçu les éléments justifiant son intervention.

L’application des articles L. 211-13 et L. 211-14 ne fait pas obstacle aux dispositions particulières qui régissent les actions en justice contre le fonds. Lorsque le fonds de garantie est tenu aux intérêts prévus à l’article L. 211-14, ils sont versés au Trésor public.
