COPROPRIETE : QUI PAYE POUR LA REFECTION DE L'ESCALIER ?

Les copropriétaires sont tenus de participer aux charges entrainées par les services collectifs et les éléments d'équipement commun en fonction de l'utilité qu'ils retirent de ces services et éléments.  Il en est ainsi par exemple pour les dépenses d'ascenseurs.

En revanche, chaque copropriétaire est tenu de participer aux charges relatives à la conservation, à l'entretien et à l'administration des parties communes proportionnellement à la valeur de son lot.

Tels sont les principes posés par la loi du 10 juillet 1965, art 10 et rappelés dans cette toute récente affaire.

Un copropriétaire utilisait une entrée indépendante pour se rendre dans son logement.  Il contestait donc devoir participer aux frais de peinture et d'électricité de l'escalier de son bâtiment au motif qu'il n'en avait ni l'accès ni l'utilité.

A tort, ont estimé les juges: les escaliers faisant partie du gros œuvre de l'immeuble, les travaux de réfection des peintures et les travaux d'électricité sont bien des charges de conservation et d'entretien des parties communes.  Les copropriétaires doivent donc y participer en fonction de leurs tantièmes de propriété ( Décision du 3 février 2015, 8ème chambre, 1ère section SAS NEXITY LAMY c/ C. ).

Peu importe l'utilisation qui est faite de l'escalier ou de l'utilité que le copropriétaire en retire .

FIFA ELECTION : WHY NOT A DEBATE ON TV ?

The FIFA Electoral Committee has validated the candidature of the four people to stand for election to become the next President of FIFA.

The date of the Election is May 29, 2015.

The Candidates are; 

          Joseph BLATTER (Switzerland) 

          Ali Bin HUSSEIN (Jordan)

          Luis FIGO (Portugal)

          Michael van PRAAG (Netherlands).

In view of the numerous problems that FIFA is facing at present it would be of interest to all football followers to hear each candidate explain what his policies would be if he became the next President of FIFA !

This is generally accepted as being democratically necessary because electors must know what they are voting for.  However, the outgoing President, Joseph Blatter, has already expressed his personal feelings on this subject by saying  that a televised debate by all candidates was not necessary.   "It's playing politics" he said ! 

This has disappointed football followers everywhere and also the representatives of all the countries who will be voting !

Mr Blatter is well known because he has travelled to all corners of the FIFA Football World.  The other candidates have not, which is a handicap !   Also, how can electors vote for or against a candidate if he and his programme are not made public ?

Two or three debates, televised and shown worldwide, would probably be money spinners !  Television companies would be more than just keen to organise such an event, even if only three candidates participated ! 

Could a prominent personality in the World of Football provoke action on this subject ?

PUTIN IS A CHAMELEON !

During the last twelve months, President Putin has changed his mind so often over what he accepts or not with respect to the "Independent Country of Ukraine", even after signing agreements, that western diplomats have now stopped trying to understand him ! 

Diplomacy has failed, Western Sanctions have not deterred his singularity of mind which is to "reconquer" Ukraine.  Putin wants Ukraine back in Russia  ! 

To stop Putin in his tracks, to recover Crimea and to restore Peace in Ukraine, it would seem the West has only one remaining option, which is War !   

The West has often hesitated during this last year because it does not want a war !  Putin has stoically ignored everything in his way which could prevent him from achieving his objectives !

He has encouraged and armed ethnic Russian Rebels in Eastern Ukraine.  They have destroyed Towns and Villages. As a result, at least 1.4 millions ethnic Ukrainian refugees have fled from the East of Ukraine to the West, seeking a shelter and the means to survive !

Putin wants even more !  He wants still more land in southern Ukraine to build a direct corridor between Russia and Crimea !  That is another reason why he continues to supply all the armaments and soldiers Russian Rebels say they need ! 

The West must now adopt the same tactics as Russia !  Play for time by rejecting Russian proposals for an immediate Peace Plan, while sending troops into eastern Ukraine and Crimea ! 

Later, Putin might take things more seriously if the West accepts to negotiate because it has "feet on the ground" ! Alas by then it may already be too late ! 

The Rouble has started to collapse, oil and gas prices have slumped due to overproduction and Russian civilians are divided about what Putin is doing... !   Putin knows trouble lies in store for him !

SARKOZY'S PARTY GETS A SERIOUS WARNING !

Who really did win the Bye-election in Doubs yesterday ?  One could legitimately ask this question !  

The official result is that the Socialist Party (PS) candidate, Frédéric Barbier, defeated Sophie Montel, the National Front (FN) candidate, by 800 votes !  The PS polled 51.43 %, the FN polled 48.57 % of the votes ! There were 9.51% less abstentions in the second round run-off.

Officially UMP, whose candidate was eliminated in the first round with 26.54% of the votes, appealed to its electors to vote neither for FN nor for PS.  However, certain leaders like Juppé and Kosciusko-Morizet said they would personnally vote for the Socialist Candidate.  As for Sarkozy, the President of UMP, he proposed a vote for the Socialists, or a blank vote, or an abstention from voting !  Above all, no vote for FN !

In the absense of complete agreement by UMP, some of their electors did not hesitate to vote for FN !  This resulted in  a very small victory by the Socialists. 

This is not only a setback for UMP but a serious warning of what could happen in forthcoming elections !

PUTIN IS AGAIN BUYING TIME !

Once again Putin is obtaining more time to prove to Russians everywhere that he is protecting them from aggression by the Western countries ! 

The latest "proposed agreement" prepared by Angela Merkel and François Hollande was rebuffed by Putin yesterday.   The immediate question is "Will Russia and the Pro-Russia Seperatists in Ukraine stop the armed combat in eastern Ukraine ?"

All previous cease-fire agreements have failed !  Russia has never stopped its continuous flow of arms to the Rebels !  Will Putin ever sign another "agreement" aimed at curtailing his private aims for Ukraine ?  

 It seems that Putin will not stop until he gets another large chunk of Southern and Eastern Ukraine, particularly the "corridor" he needs to preserve and protect Crimea, which he captured from "under the noses" of the West ?  

Many former Russian satellite countries started fleeing the domination of Russia the day in 1989 the Berlin Wall was breached. Later several countries joined the EU !  This haunts Putin even now because at that time he too was in Eastern Berlin but working for the KGB !  This explains why he now wants to hang on to Ukraine at all costs !

At present Russia simply crosses the border it has with Ukraine and delivers armaments whenever they are requested by the Rebels !  To stop this what is needed is a "no mans land corridor" between Russia and Ukraine, controled by a United Nations peacekeeping force ! 

Likewise Southern Ukraine must be protected to prevent Russia establishing the corridor they want between Russia and Crimea !  

 Even if  the current Sanctions are not lifted, Putin still desperately wants that "corridor" !  And he will get it, unless the West are prepared to put "feet on the ground"......like Russia !

Whatever the next "Agreement" contains, even if he signs it,  Putin will not give up on his current aims and intentions !

FIFA : BLATTER REJECTS PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE BY CANDIDATES !

The "Times of London" yesterday reported that Sepp Blatter rejected the idea of a live debate by all Candidates seeking to be elected as President of FIFA !  He said one should not "imitate politics". 

One should not dupe electors either !  Every candidate should also have a clear program of action which would justify his wish to be elected !  Each candidate should be heard, and preferably, be seen on Television, debating "off the cuff" questions raised by the others ! 

As there are still four valid candidates (their credentials are still being vetted) why does Blatter reject the chance to explain why he needs a fifth term of four years ?  Are the current FIFA problems so complicated that only HE could unravel the "mess" he has accumulated during his 16 years in office ? 

It is pointless in this Blog to enumerate again all the changes which lovers of football would like to see introduced, but Blatter's rejection of a debate is an inexcusable denial of the basic rights of candidates in an election ! 

It is not democratic and resembles the policies of a Totalitarian State !  This is inacceptable !
