The period within which a registered creditor who has been notified of a summons to pay equivalent to a seizure must declare his claim is two months from the date of notification.
However, a creditor who can prove that his default is not due to his own fault may ask to be authorised to declare his claim after the time limit has expired. The judge shall rule by order upon a request which shall be filed, under penalty of inadmissibility, no later than fifteen days before the date set for the auction hearing or the hearing to establish the out-of-court sale.
