Under pain of nullity, the notification of the mandatory injunction to pay shall enjoin the debtor:
either to pay to the creditor the amount indicated in the order, together with interest and registry
fees, the amount of which shall be specified; or
where the debtor intends to put forward a defence, he shall file an opposition which shall have
the effect of referring the initial petition filed by the creditor as well as the entire dispute to the
court.
Under the same pain of nullity the notification of the mandatory injunction to pay shall:
- indicate the time limit within which the opposition shall be filed, the court before which
the opposition shall be brought as well as the form of the said opposition;
- inform the debtor that he may take cognizance of the documents submitted by the creditor
at the registry of the competent court whose President issued the mandatory injunction to
pay, and that, failing to file an opposition within the prescribed time limit, he shall no longer
have the right to any recourse and may be compelled through any legal means to pay the
sums claimed.
