This is an exceptionally rare decision, since the Court overturned a lower court ruling and decided the case itself, which happens very rarely with the French Court of Cassation. This overturning of a ruling and judgment of a case by the Court of Cassation became part of our legal history for the first time during the Dreyfus affair.
C’est une décision extrêmement rare car c’est une cassation sans renvoi devant une autre juridiction. Et ça, c’est très rare de la part de la Cour de cassation française.
