Without further proceedings and in preference to all other creditors, the claim constitutes an assignment to the beneficiary of the sums in question as and when they become due. The third party is required to pay these sums directly to the beneficiary at the times set by the judgment.
Unless otherwise agreed, sums paid to the maintenance creditor are paid to his home or residence.
The direct payment procedure applies to maintenance payments due. It also applies to payments due for the last six months prior to notification of the request for direct payment. These sums are paid in equal instalments over a period of twelve months. By way of derogation from the second and third subparagraphs, when an organisation responsible for family benefits acts on behalf of a maintenance creditor, the direct payment procedure…
The request for direct payment is made through a bailiff. Where a public administration is subrogated to the rights of a maintenance creditor, it may itself make the application for direct payment and avail itself of the provisions of Articles L. 152-1 and L. 152-2. When an organisation that owes family benefits acts on behalf of a maintenance creditor, it may itself make the request for direct payment.
The conditions for the application of this chapter shall be laid down by decree in the Conseil d’Etat.
Any creditor in possession of a writ of execution recording a claim that is due and payable may, after service of a summons, arrange for the seizure and sale of tangible movable property belonging to the debtor, whether or not it is held by the latter. Any creditor meeting the same conditions may join the seizure operations by way of opposition. Where the seizure relates to goods held by a…
Seizure for sale of premises used as the debtor’s dwelling, where the purpose is to recover a debt other than a maintenance debt of less than an amount set by regulation, may only be carried out, unless authorised by the court, if recovery is not possible by seizure of a deposit account or wages.
The forced sale of the assets takes place by public auction after a period of one month from the date of the seizure, during which the debtor may proceed to an amicable sale under the conditions provided for in this article. The debtor against whom a compulsory execution measure is being pursued may, under the conditions laid down by decree of the Conseil d’Etat, voluntarily sell the seized assets in…
The agent authorised by law to proceed with the sale stops the sale operations when the price of the goods sold reaches an amount sufficient to pay the principal, interest and costs of the distraining and opposing creditors. He is responsible for representing the auction price. Unless otherwise stipulated, the sale price may not be seized.
Only distraining or opposing creditors who have made themselves known prior to the verification of the seized assets and those who, prior to the seizure, have taken a protective measure or published a security interest over the same assets, shall be entitled to assert their rights over the sale price.
