Article 1992 of the French Civil Code

The mandatary is liable not only for fraud, but also for the faults he commits in his management.

Nevertheless, liability for faults is applied less rigorously to one whose mandate is gratuitous than to one who receives a salary.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 1992

Le mandataire répond non seulement du dol, mais encore des fautes qu’il commet dans sa gestion.

Néanmoins, la responsabilité relative aux fautes est appliquée moins rigoureusement à celui dont le mandat est gratuit qu’à celui qui reçoit un salaire.
