This Law empowers the Royal Court to make an order for possession of an immovable where the Royal Court: (a) is exercising its jurisdiction in proceedings for the cancellation (résolution) of a contract of lease of an immovable; and (b) orders the cancellation of that lease. This power may be exercised to grant: (a) immediate possession of the immovable; or (b) possession at a later date of the immovable, in accordance with article 3(3) and (3A) of the Loi concernant l’expulsion des locataires réfractaires as if the provisions of that Law applied to the Royal Court.
