Chapter II: Non-contentious proceedings.

An appeal against a non-contentious decision shall be lodged, by a declaration made or sent by registered post to the registry of the court which handed down the decision, by a lawyer or a public or ministerial officer in cases where the latter is authorised to do so by the provisions in force.

The judge may, on this declaration, modify or retract his decision. If this is not the case, the court registrar shall without delay transmit the case file with the declaration and a copy of the decision to the court registry. The judge shall inform the party within one month of his decision to re-examine the case or to refer it to the court.

The appeal is investigated and judged according to the rules applicable to non-contentious matters before the judicial court.
