If the goods left on the premises or deposited in a suitable place have a market value, they are compulsorily sold as in the case of seizure and sale.
The proceeds of the sale, after deduction of costs and, if applicable, the amount of the landlord’s claim, are deposited with the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations on behalf of the evicted person, who is informed by the official responsible for the sale by means of a registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt sent to his current address or, if unknown, to his last address.
