658. A creditor who, having received the notice contemplated in article 655, proceeds to seize notwithstanding the prohibition of article 652, is responsible for any injury resulting therefrom; so also is the creditor who refuses to give a release of a seizure taken after the date of the debtor’s declaration but before the receipt of the notice. In both cases the clerk himself, at the request of the debtor, must grant a release of the seizure.
The creditor shall not be entitled, in the first case, to any costs; in the second case, he shall be entitled to his costs until the date of receipt of the notice contemplated in article 655.
