Résumé Omnilex

The dispute concerned the legal regime applicable to an insurance termination sent in 1995. The court held that the notice had to be examined under the former LAMA regime, not under LAMal. The decision thus turned on transitional law and the temporal applicability of the two insurance statutes.

Regeste Omnilex

Transitional law between LAMA and LAMal; an insurance termination communicated in 1995 is to be assessed under the former LAMA regime and not under LAMal. The decisive criterion is the temporal point at which the termination was transmitted; the later statutory regime does not retroactively govern the legal effects of a notice already given under the previous law.
