chapter CCQ-1992

Act respecting the implementation of the reform of the Civil Code

TITLE I TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS

PRELIMINARY PROVISION

1. The object of the provisions of this Title is to govern conflicts of legislation resulting from the coming into force of the Civil Code of Québec and the corresponding amendments introduced by this Act.

Chapter I lays down the general transitional rules of law. Chapter II sets forth the special rules for each Book of the Code; these rules contain certain additions and exceptions to the general rules, or specify the application or scope of the general rules in certain cases.

1992, c. 57, s. 1.

CHAPTER I GENERAL PROVISIONS

2. The new legislation has no retroactive effect; it applies only to the future.

It does not, therefore, change the conditions for creation of a previously created legal situation, nor the conditions for extinction of a previously extinguished legal situation, and it does not alter the effects already produced by a legal situation.

1992, c. 57, s. 2.

3. The new legislation is applicable to legal situations which exist when it comes into force.

Any hitherto unfulfilled conditions for the creation or extinction of situations in the course of being created or extinguished are therefore governed by the new legislation; it also governs the future effects of existing legal situations.

1992, c. 57, s. 3.

4. In contractual situations which exist when the new legislation comes into force, the former legislation subsists where supplementary rules are used to determine the extent and scope of the rights and obligations of the parties and the effects of the contract.

However, the provisions of the new legislation apply to the exercise of the rights and the performance of the obligations, and to their proof, transfer, alteration or extinction.

1992, c. 57, s. 4.

5. The stipulations of a juridical act made prior to the new legislation which are contrary to its imperative provisions are without effect for the future.

1992, c. 57, s. 5.

6. Where the new legislation lengthens a prescribed period of time, the new period applies to existing situations and account is taken of the time already elapsed.

Where it shortens a prescribed period, the new period applies, but begins to run from the coming into force of the new legislation. However, the period prescribed in the former legislation is maintained where it would in fact be extended if the new period applied.

Where a period of time not prescribed in the former legislation is introduced by the new legislation and begins with an event which in fact occurred before the coming into force of that legislation, the period, if not already expired, runs from that coming into force.

1992, c. 57, s. 6.

7. Juridical acts which may be annulled when the new legislation comes into force may not be annulled thenceforth for any reason which is no longer recognized under the new legislation.

1992, c. 57, s. 7.

8. The measures to be taken before the exercise of a right or power conferred by the new legislation, including the sending of a notice or the obtaining of an authorization, may validly be taken before the coming into force of the new legislation.

1992, c. 57, s. 8.

9. Proceedings pending continue to be governed by the former legislation.

An exception is made to this rule where the judgment to be rendered creates rights or where the new legislation has a retroactive effect pursuant to the provisions of this Act. A further exception is made for all matters concerning proof and procedure in such proceedings.

1992, c. 57, s. 9.

10. Applications made according to the ordinary procedure in first instance are continued in accordance with the new rules applicable to ordinary procedure, even where the new legislation provides that in the future such applications are to be made by way of a motion, unless the parties agree to proceed according to the new provisions.

1992, c. 57, s. 10.

CHAPTER II SPECIAL PROVISIONS

DIVISION I PERSONS

§ 1 . — Change of name

1992, c. 57, s. 13.

14. Where the presumptive heirs have been authorized to take provisional possession, a declaratory judgment of death pronounced after 31 December 1993 in respect of an absence beginning before 1 January 1994 fixes as the date of death the day of the disappearance of the absentee, except where the presumptions drawn from the circumstances allow the death to be held to be certain at another date.

1992, c. 57, s. 14.

§ 3 . — Registers and acts of civil status

20. The registrar of civil status is not bound to make, on acts of birth, marriage or death and on certificates of civil status which he issues, the notations provided for in articles 134 and 135 of the new Code if the events from which such notations result occurred prior to 1 January 1994.

He publishes deaths occurring before 1 January 1994 by means of copies of acts of death and certificates and attestations of death based on the acts of burial drawn up under the former legislation, and by means of attestations of death made under the Public Health Protection Act (chapter P-35) and described as declarations by the former legislation.

The parents must notify the Public Curator of the conversion.

Where a dative tutorship is exercised by a third person, it may, upon an application to the court by one or both of the parents, be converted to a legal tutorship conferred on one or both of the parents, as the case may be.

Any unjustified delay on the part of the usufructuary in making an inventory or in furnishing security for a usufruct which opens before 1 January 1994 does not give rise to the application of article 1146 of the new Code, except where the usufructuary has been put in default by the bare owner, in which case he has 60 days to fulfill his obligations.

1992, c. 57, s. 61.

69. Where, before 1 January 1994, the institute has alienated the substituted property or used it as security, or where the property has been the subject of a seizure or a forced sale, the right of the substitute to take back the property when the substitution opens continues to be governed by the former legislation.

1992, c. 57, s. 132.

DIVISION VI PRIOR CLAIMS AND HYPOTHECS

133. Property charged as security under the rules of the former legislation continues to be governed by that legislation to the extent that the right to the realization of the security has been acquired by the sending and publication of the notices required under the former legislation or, if not, by means of a judicial demand, before 1 January 1994.

If the right to the realization of the security has not yet been acquired, the new legislation is applicable.

1992, c. 57, s. 133.

134. Subject to registration, if the former legislation so required, within the time prescribed by that legislation,

(1)  conventional securities other than transfers of claims contemplated by section 136 become conventional, movable or immovable hypothecs, depending on whether the property charged is movable or immovable property;

(2)  hypothecs created by will become conventional hypothecs;

(3)  legal or judicial hypothecs become legal hypothecs if the new legislation attributes this quality to the claims on which they are based;

(4)  legal hypothecs in favour of minors or persons of full age under tutorship or curatorship continue to be legal hypothecs as long as the tutor or curator does not offer another security of sufficient value pursuant to articles 242, 243 and 266 of the new Code;

(5)  privileges become either prior claims or legal hypothecs, depending on the quality attributed by the new legislation to the claims on which they are based. However, the privilege of the seller of an immovable becomes a legal hypothec; the privilege of the lessor of an immovable, other than a residential immovable, on the furniture becomes a legal movable hypothec which retains its opposability for a period of not more than ten years provided it is published, as though it were a renewal made in accordance with section 157.

The abovementioned securities conserve their rank under the former legislation in all cases; however, hypothecs on property which, by reason of the application of the new legislation, have changed in nature must, to conserve their rank, be published in the appropriate register within the following 12 months.

Former legal or judicial securities, other than the privilege of the seller of an immovable, based on claims which, under the new legislation, no longer have preference, become prior claims collocated after all other prior claims.

1992, c. 57, s. 134.

135. In no case does the application of the new legislation have the effect of changing the initial object of the security, without prejudice to the powers granted to the court by article 2731 of the new Code.

1992, c. 57, s. 135.

136. Transfers of present and future rents produced by an immovable, and transfers of indemnities provided by the insurance contracts covering the rents, become immovable hypothecs; they rank according to the date of registration of the acts in which they are contained, unless they have a different rank under the former legislation. Any such transfer not contained in an act entered either in the index of immovables in territory with a cadastral survey or in the index of names in territory without a cadastral survey requires, to conserve its rank, renewal of registration or registration, as the case may be, in the land register before 27 February 1996; the renewal or registration are effected by notice.

Transfers by bill of lading become conventional hypothecs and conserve their initial rank, provided they are registered before 27 February 1996.

1992, c. 57, s. 136; 1995, c. 33, s. 1.

137. (Repealed).

However, the period for registration of the notice provided in that article runs from 31 August 1996, but the creditor may register the notice at any time before that date.

1992, c. 57, s. 138; 1995, c. 33, s. 2.

139. The provisions of article 2723 of the new Code, concerning cancellation of the notice of crystallization of a floating hypothec, are applicable to notices of omission or breach registered pursuant to article 1040a of the former Code.

1992, c. 57, s. 139.

140. The privileges acquired by workmen as a result of work done on an immovable and completed before 1 January 1994 are subject to publication of a notice of preservation of legal hypothec within 30 days after that date, provided they still exist on that date.

1992, c. 57, s. 140.

DIVISION VII PROOF

141. In questions of preconstituted proof and legal presumptions, the applicable legislation is the legislation in force on the day on which the juridical act is entered into or the facts occur.

1992, c. 57, s. 141.

142. (Repealed).

1992, c. 57, s. 142; 1999, c. 40, s. 335.

DIVISION VIII PRESCRIPTION

143. A person who, on 1 January 1994, has not yet acquired by prescription ownership of an immovable which he has possessed as owner is subject to the provisions of article 2918 of the new Code.

A person who, on 1 January 1994, has become the owner of an immovable by prescription, pursuant to the former legislation, may still apply to the court in whose territory the immovable is located to obtain, by motion, judicial recognition of his right of ownership.

1995, c. 33, s. 4.

149.2. A person may complete an application made by means of an extract during the period from 1 January 1994 to 31 August 1995 by presenting at the registry office, within 180 days after the end of that period, an authentic copy of the act, accompanied with a notice in duplicate for every act concerned establishing the connection between the act and the extract and indicating, in addition to the description of the immovables, the place of registration and the registration number of the extract. The notice, which does not require certification, shall be entered in the registers.

(2)  the requirement under articles 3036 and 3037 that measurements be mentioned is not applicable, and the following shall apply in place of the provisions of the second paragraph of article 3037:

“The description of a part of a lot as the remainder after separation of other parts of the lot is admissible only if the separated parts are described in accordance with the provisions of article 3036.”;

(3)  article 3042 is not applicable where the application for registration of the transfer, cession or right referred to in that article includes a statement, made by the person authorized to expropriate the immovable or to appropriate a right of ownership in the immovable, that the immovable comprising the required part and the remainder corresponded to one or more parts of a lot at the time when the notice of expropriation or appropriation was registered.

In addition, if the territory has not been the subject of a cadastral renovation after 22 June 1992, pursuant to the Act to promote the reform of the cadastre in Québec (chapter R-3.1), the presumption of accuracy attaching to the cadastral plan, as established by article 3027 of the new Code, is not applicable and the titles relating to the immovable prevail over the cadastral plan.

§ 2 . — Publication of personal and movable real rights

157. Publications of transfers of property in stock, pledges of agricultural and forest property, commercial pledges and other movable real securities created and registered in accordance with the former legislation must be renewed within 12 months from 1 January 1994 by registration in the register of personal and movable real rights; the same applies to movable hypothecs published pursuant to the second paragraph of section 134.

Registration of the notice of renewal in the register of personal and movable real rights preserves the opposability of the security, notwithstanding article 2942 of the new Code, at the rank it held on the date of the first prior publication, regardless of the other dates of publication of the same security.

If the publication is not renewed, the rights preserved by the original registration have no effect, upon the expiry of 15 months after 31 December 1993, in respect of other creditors or subsequent purchasers in good faith whose claims have been regularly published.

1992, c. 57, s. 157.

157.1. All movable securities created under the former legislation that were not subject to the formality of registration but which have become, under the new legislation, movable hypothecs subject to registration require, to preserve their opposability at their original rank, registration in the register of personal and movable real rights before 31 August 1996.

1995, c. 33, s. 9.

157.2. Notwithstanding article 2700 of the new Code, the period for registering the notice required by the said article to preserve the securities referred to in sections 157 and 157.1 runs, in respect of alienations of property occurring from 1 January 1994 to 31 August 1996, from the latter date, whether the alienation occurs before or after the registration of the securities affected. This rule shall not prevent a creditor from registering a notice before 31 August 1996.

1995, c. 33, s. 9.

158. No application for registration referring to a right the registration of which must be renewed, no prior notice of intention to exercise a hypothecary right and no other notice may be registered unless the right itself is published.

1992, c. 57, s. 158; 1995, c. 33, s. 10.

159. A single notice is sufficient if the movable security for which publication is to be renewed has been published, in accordance with the former legislation, in several registration divisions. In this case, the notice mentions the various registration divisions and indicates the respective registration dates and numbers of the security.

Notwithstanding the second paragraph of article 3007 of the new Code, the registrar may, in the 15 months following 1 January 1994, and if circumstances so require, give priority to applications for registration which are not in the form of a notice of renewal. Any statement of rights registered in the register of personal and movable real rights must indicate the specific dates of certification for each registration.

The registrar is bound, under article 3017 of the new Code, to notify only those creditors whose rights are registered in the register of personal and movable real rights and who have requested registration of their address for the purpose of notification.

1992, c. 57, s. 159.

160. The personal rights and movable real rights registered in accordance with the former legislation and in respect of which the new legislation requires no renewal of registration retain their opposability. The entries may be consulted in the former registers.

1992, c. 57, s. 160.

161. The register of farm and forest pledges, the register of commercial pledges and the register of transfers of property in stock are deemed to be closed as of 1 January 1994, and no cancellation, or reduction of a hypothec, may be made therein after the expiry of a period of 12 months; this period begins to run from 1 January 1994.

The registrar who is depositary of the registers may, pursuant to article 3016 of the new Code, make corrections thereto.

1992, c. 57, s. 161.

162. (Repealed).

1992, c. 57, s. 162; 1998, c. 5, s. 19.

163. Notices of marriage contracts or changes to marriage contracts entered in the central register of matrimonial regimes are entered as of right in the central register of personal and movable real rights.

1992, c. 57, s. 163.

164. In the 15 months following 1 January 1994, consultation of the register of personal and movable real rights does not grant exemption from consultation, where applicable, of the register of transfers of property in stock, the register of farm and forest pledges, the register of commercial pledges and the index of names.

The registrar who is depositary of the registers or who was qualified to make entries therein may, during that period, issue certified statements of subsisting rights in respect of rights created before 1 January 1994, and may process applications for reduction or cancellation pertaining to such rights.

Before the expiry of that period, the registrar entrusted with the register of personal and movable real rights is bound to issue a certified statement of the rights entered in the register only if such rights were published after 31 December 1993 or if the registration of those rights is the result of a renewal made in accordance with section 157.

DIVISION X PRIVATE INTERNATIONAL LAW

167. In questions of conflict of laws, the law governing the formal validity of a marriage is determined pursuant to the provisions of the second paragraph of article 3088 of the new Code, even if the marriage was solemnized before 1 January 1994.
