Article 59

Des Lettres de change et Billets à ordre

Commercial Law
Titre I: Du Commerce en général (On Commerce in General)
Chapitre VII: Des Lettres de change et Billets à ordre (On Bills of Exchange and Promissory Notes)

On commencera donc par faire assigner par-devant le juge de l'amirauté, l'accepteur ou celui sur lequel la lettre de change ou billet à ordre est tiré, pour se voir condamner au payement de la lettre ou billet à ordre, capital, frais, etc.

Life lesson: Start by suing the acceptor before the admiralty judge — then go after the others if needed.
Notes: Primary target: acceptor (drawee). Admiralty court jurisdiction. Action for principal + costs.
