The appeal is lodged, investigated and judged as in non-contentious matters.
The time limit for appeal shall run, with regard to the parties and third parties to whom the judgment has been notified, one month after the expiry of the time limit set by the court for the completion of the publicity measures of article 127 of the Civil Code.
The time limit for lodging an appeal in cassation suspends the enforcement of the decision declaring absence. An appeal in cassation lodged within this time limit also suspends enforcement.
