alienations, encumbrances, or leases
A. When the legal procedure is defective or does not comply with the requisites of
law in the alienation, encumbrance, or lease of movable or immovable property made by a
legal representative of a succession, minor, or interdict, provided an order of court has
been entered authorizing such alienation, encumbrance, or lease, any action shall be
prescribed against by those claiming such defect or lack of compliance after the lapse of
two years from the time of making such alienation, encumbrance, or lease.
B. This prescriptive period shall also apply to an alienation, encumbrance or lease
of movable or immovable property by an independent succession representative provided
an order of court has been entered authorizing independent administration.
C. This Section shall be applied both retrospectively and prospectively, however,
any person whose rights would be adversely affected by this Section, shall have six
months from July 10, 1990, within which to assert the action described in Subsection A of
this Section and if no such action is instituted within that time, such claim shall be forever
barred.
