a judgment (Appeal No. 08-20403) dated January 14, 2010, 1st Civil Chamber of the Court of Cassation ruled particularly important.
By this decision, the Court of Cassation upheld the decisions of many courts of Proceeding on the withdrawal form to be included on the loan offer given to the borrower on concluding a credit agreement consumption.
Under this ruling, the Supreme Court finds, in accordance with articles L 311-8, L 311-13, R 311-13 and L 311-7 of the Code of Consumer that the lender who has extended credit following a prior offer does not include a detachable form of withdrawal should be deprived of his right to interest.
This decision, which will apply in particular to all contracts of revolving credit, therefore means that each time a credit institution will not be able to prove that the offer loan given to the borrower in fact contain a schedule of withdrawal, he will lose his right to interest, the borrower becomes bound to the reimbursement capital, net of interest, including those already paid.
The full text of this decision is:
