French term

acte constitutif d'un droit de gage immobilier cédule hypothécaire au porteur

French to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) mortgages
This is the title of a Swiss legal document concerning a mortgage note but I'm not quite sure how the mortgage note fits in with the "droit de gage immobilier" or how to translate "acte constitutif" in this context.

Can "acte constitutif d'un droit de gage immobilier" just be translated as "mortgage deed" or is this not specific enough?
Thanks for your help

Mortgage probably for the benefit of the Bank lending the purchase money to this private individual ?
Koen Roelens Sep 5, 2004:
"Acte constitutif de..." = "acte constituant..." = "instrument/deed creating..."
Koen Roelens Sep 5, 2004:
Usually the term "Gage" is limited to "choses mobili�res". See Art. 2072 Code Civil: "Le nantissement d'une chose mobili�re s'appelle gage. Celui d'une chose immobili�re s'appelle antichr�se." In this case, I would think that it's simply a mortgage deed.

the document is for a private individual who is buying a condominium unit in Switzerland

Instrument creating a fixed charge - (securing/underpinning) - a bearer debenture/bond

1. Beware of Eurodicautom's 'right of lien' for droit de gage - there is no such thing. It#s either a lien, pedge or right to create such.

2. FHS Bridge F/E glossary -> droit de gage immobilier = real security; CHARGE ON REAL PROPERTY [but a fixed charge can be over fixed asssets gen. i.e. land, plant & equipment].

3. Unusual set-up if right. As this Google ref. says, debentures are usually secured by a floating and not a fixed charge.

4. Mortgage deed refers to land only. A charge certificate is issued by a UK Land Registry. If it's a chattel mortgage i.e. of a motor car, it's called a Bill of Sale.

'... Fixed charge – assignment of specific assets to cover debt on default. eg, Mortgage debenture – fixed charge on specified properties. ... Bearer Bonds. ...'

Lien in GB can be of goods or chattels only - not of fixed assets like land when it turns into a charge.

Note that a co. can, by its Articles, claim an automatic \'lien\' on its members\' shares for unpaid calls. Shareholders individually can \'charge\' their shares by \'mortgaging\' them to a lender.

Extra context: condo/condominium = commonhold in GB.

So poss.: \'Bearer commonhold-unit charge certificate\'.

French term (edited): acte constitutif d'un droit de gage immobilier c�dule hypoth�caire au porteur

possessory [real property] lien document on mortgage deed to bearer

there are three kinds of cedule hypothecaire:
au porteur
nominatif
and au nom du proprietaire...

acte constitutif just means the document..a droit de gage is a possessory real property lien...

I think this a LIEN on a MORTGAGE......if that is possible...not just a straight mortage......
