aux concours propres

I go along with Daryo on this one.

it's about "using your own means to pursue your interests" (i.e. acting alone on your own behalf, not as part of the collective action by "la masse des créanciers") or something else related to that. But this being a legal text, more precision is needed. For that the integral text of this decision by "la Cour de cassation" would definitely help.

Thanks for your thoughts on this. It's not a typo, but that's not to say it's not an error. I'm going to track down the original text. However there's an interesting entry in one of Daryo's links that I'm looking into. I'll keep you posted.

Try conTours instead of conCours

It must be a mistake.

'réparation d'un préjudice aux conTours propres' makes sense in French

Look at older meanings of "concours", as legalese tends to keep alive archaeological layers of language.

It's possible to presume a meaning that would make sense, but that can be dangerous business, leading to some apparently correct translation that is anything but.

What is more or less sure is that you have to look for the whole of "une réparation d'un préjudice aux concours propres", and first find out if "aux concours propres" relates to "une réparation" or to "un préjudice".

The few ghits about "aux concours propres" are all about exams, no help of any kind there.

Also, can you give a reference to this case? This decision of "La Cour de cassation" MUST have been published, if nowhere else on www.legifrance.gouv.fr.
