Question juridique clé
Whether the new association liability rules in Arts. 71 and 75a CC applied retroactively to pre-existing debts of an association dissolved and deleted before 1 June 2005.
Solution extraite
No. The former Art. 71 para. 2 aCC remained applicable to debts arising before the new law and could not be displaced retroactively under the transitional rules.
Motifs extraits
The debt arose in 2001, well before the new regime. The new rule excluding personal liability is dispositive, not a fundamental rule of public order or morals, and Art. 3 of the Final Title did not apply because the debt stemmed from the parties' autonomous legal relationship.
