The analysis of recent case law, particularly through the VIA MARENDA case, highlights the essential points of vigilance in the management of these dual structures.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">1. The Duality of Legal Regimes<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The fundamental distinction between the ASL, governed by the 2004 ordinance, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecile-zakine.fr\/en\/5-choses-pour-modifier-exercice-comptables-en-copro\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"338\" rel=\"dofollow\" >co-ownership, subject to the law of July 10, 1965<\/a>, imposes a strict separation in their administration. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecile-zakine.fr\/en\/le-property-manager-votre-partenaire-juridique-de-confiance-pour-optimiser-la-gestion-immobiliere-sur-antibes\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"326\" rel=\"dofollow\" >This legal duality is manifested both in governance<\/a> than in asset management. The consistent case law of the Court of Cassation underlines the importance of maintaining the autonomy of these two entities, under penalty of seeing their decisions tainted with nullity.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">2. The Imperative of Accounting Separation<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Financial management is a critical point in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecile-zakine.fr\/en\/avocat-asl-copropriete\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"358\" rel=\"dofollow\" >ASL-co-ownership coexistence<\/a>The case law of March 9, 2023 (Cass. 3rd civ., no. 21-21793) clearly establishes that<strong> the charges due to the ASL cannot be included in the provisional budget of the condominium association.<\/strong> This requirement for accounting separation extends to all financial flows, including in particular:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Establishing forecast budgets<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Perception of charges<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>The constitution of works funds<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Bank account management<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">3. The Dichotomy of Financial Obligations<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The legal nature of the debts constitutes a major distinguishing element between the two structures.<strong>s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecile-zakine.fr\/en\/asl-et-copropriete-5-points-cles-par-avocat\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"323\" rel=\"dofollow\" >condominium charges<\/a> are a personal obligation of the co-owner<\/strong>, while <strong>ASL charges are attached to the real estate itself, in accordance with the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.legifrance.gouv.fr\/loda\/article_lc\/LEGIARTI000006478964\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Article 3 of the order of July 1, 2004.<\/a><\/strong> This fundamental distinction has a direct impact on:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>The recovery methods<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Transfer of obligations in the event of a transfer<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Guarantees attached to receivables<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Applicable recovery procedures<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">4. The Principle of Charges-Services Correlation<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecile-zakine.fr\/en\/la-resolution-des-association-syndicale-libre\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"324\" rel=\"dofollow\">Article 10 of the 1965 law establishes the cardinal principle of the correlation between charges and services provided in co-ownership<\/a>.<\/strong> This principle faces particular difficulties of application in the context of coexistence with an ASL. The distribution of charges must respect:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">The objective utility of the services for each lot<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">The specific nature of common equipment<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Terms of use of common areas<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Statutory distribution keys<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-200 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">5. Obligations of the Trustee in Dual Management<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">The trustee, in this context of legal duality, must exercise increased vigilance in the execution of his missions. His obligations include:<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Administrative rigor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Maintaining strictly separate accounts<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Compliance with procedures specific to each entity<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Separate organization of assemblies<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Separate storage of archives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><strong>Financial transparency:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Establishing separate budgets<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Clear communication of fundraising calls<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Precise justification of charges<\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\">Traceability of financial flows<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Failure to comply with these obligations may result in:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"[&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc space-y-1.5 pl-7\">\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cecile-zakine.fr\/en\/5-choses-pour-contester-un-budget-ag-a-bordeaux\/\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"325\" rel=\"dofollow\">nullity of general meeting resolutions<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>The challenge to the professional liability of the trustee<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Disputes between co-owners<\/strong><\/li>\n<li class=\"whitespace-normal break-words\"><strong>Difficulties in recovering charges<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Mastering these legal and practical aspects is crucial to ensure efficient management of complex real estate complexes.
