Article L642-19 of the French Commercial code

The official receiver either orders the sale by public auction or authorises, at the price and under the conditions that he determines, the sale by mutual agreement of the debtor’s other assets where this is likely to safeguard the debtor’s interests. Where the sale takes place by public auction, it is carried out under the conditions provided for in the second paragraph of article L. 322-2 or in the articles L. 322-4 or L. 322-7.

The juge-commissaire may request that the draft amicable sale be submitted to him in order to verify whether the conditions he has set have been complied with.

Article L642-19

Le juge-commissaire soit ordonne la vente aux enchères publiques, soit autorise, aux prix et conditions qu’il détermine, la vente de gré à gré des autres biens du débiteur lorsqu’elle est de nature à garantir les intérêts de celui-ci. Lorsque la vente a lieu aux enchères publiques, il y est procédé dans les conditions prévues, selon le cas, au second alinéa de l’article L. 322-2 ou aux articles L. 322-4 ou L. 322-7.

Le juge-commissaire peut demander que le projet de vente amiable lui soit soumis afin de vérifier si les conditions qu’il a fixées ont été respectées.
