Article 2250 of the French Civil Code
Only an acquired prescription is subject to renunciation.
Home | French Legislation Articles | French Civil Code | Book III: Different ways of acquiring property | Title XX: Extinctive prescription | Chapter IV: Conditions of extinctive prescription. | Section 2: Waiver of limitation.
Only an acquired prescription is subject to renunciation.
Waiver of the statute of limitations is express or tacit. Tacit waiver results from circumstances unequivocally establishing the will not to avail oneself of the statute of limitations.
A person who is unable to exercise his rights himself cannot waive the acquired prescription on his own.
Creditors, or any other person with an interest in prescription being acquired, may set it up against or invoke it even when the debtor waives it.
