5. Within 10 days of receiving an application for conciliation, the secretary of the Order shall notify the architect concerned in writing. If the architect cannot be informed personally, a notice sent to the architect’s office is deemed to have been given to the architect.
Once the secretary of the Order has received the application for conciliation, the architect may not institute proceedings to recover the account so long as the dispute may be settled by conciliation or arbitration.
Despite the foregoing, an architect may request provisional measures in accordance with article 623 of the Code of Civil Procedure (chapter C-25.01).
