Court Decisions
E-25 - Act respecting expropriation
Section 42
Disposition versions
42. On an application by a divested party, the Superior Court may, for serious reasons and if it is not so urgent for the expropriating party as to entail a serious prejudice for it should there be any delay in taking possession of the expropriated immovable, allow that divested party to remain in possession of the expropriated immovable for such period and on such conditions as the Court may determine. However, that period may not exceed six months after the vacancy date and the judgment rendered cannot be appealed.
The application is served on the expropriating party. It must be heard and decided on an urgent basis.
The Superior Court fixes the rent owed to the expropriating party for the occupation of the expropriated immovable during that period.
