French Civil Code
In forceOn the occasion of the control referred to in the preceding article, the judge may ask the legal administrator to submit to the director of the judicial registry services of the judicial court an annual management account, accompanied by supporting documents, with a view to its verification.
Where accounts have been requested, the legal administrator must submit to the director of the judicial registry services, at the end of his mission, a final account of the operations that have taken place since the last annual account was drawn up.
The director of the judicial registry services may be assisted in his mission to audit the accounts under the conditions laid down by the Code of Civil Procedure. He may also request an annual statement of the accounts from the establishments with which accounts have been opened in the name of the minor, without professional or banking secrecy being invoked against him.
If he refuses to approve the account, the director of the court registry services draws up a report on the difficulties encountered, which he forwards to the judge. The judge rules on the conformity of the account.
If the size and composition of the minor's assets justify it, the judge may decide that the verification and approval mission will be carried out, at the minor's expense and in accordance with the terms and conditions set by the judge, by a technician.
A copy of the management accounts is given to the minor who has reached the age of sixteen.
An action for the rendering of accounts, for claims or for payment is time-barred after five years from the date on which the person concerned reaches the age of majority.
