Termination of the Contract by Mandatary or Mandator · Preserved transcription; page attribution imported from the source collection. Verify against the original.
The mandatary who has entered into the contract in the course of a profession or business, may only terminate the contract for serious reasons, if it is valid for an indefinite duration and if it is not terminated by accomplishment.
Without prejudice to article 2388, a natural person who has granted a mandate otherwise than in the course of a profession or business, owes no reparation of damage with respect to a termination. There may be no derogation from this provision.
