Trêve is lost for squatters in France
Squatters no longer have the protection of the winter truce on evictions.
The Elan law contains an amendment that specifically excludes them from the trêve hivernale, which stops landlords evicting tenants who are behind with their rent between November 1 and March 31.
Previously, although they were not directly protected, the trêve was often invoked in an attempt to prevent landlords evicting squatters.
