Article 562 of the French Code of civil procedure

An appeal refers to the court the knowledge of the heads of judgment which it expressly criticises and of those which depend on them.

Devolution occurs for the whole only when the appeal seeks to set aside the judgment or if the subject-matter of the dispute is indivisible.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 562

L’appel défère à la cour la connaissance des chefs de jugement qu’il critique expressément et de ceux qui en dépendent.

La dévolution ne s’opère pour le tout que lorsque l’appel tend à l’annulation du jugement ou si l’objet du litige est indivisible.
