A clause in the lease providing for termination by operation of law only takes effect one month after an unsuccessful summons. The summons must, on pain of nullity, mention this period.
Judges hearing an application made in the forms and conditions provided for in Article 1343-5 of the Civil Code may, by granting time limits, suspend the performance and effects of termination clauses, where termination is not established or pronounced by a court decision which has acquired the authority of res judicata. The resolutory clause does not come into effect if the tenant releases himself under the conditions set by the judge.
