Article 1103 CCQ - Challenging a decision of the meeting

Article 1103 lets any co-owner ask the court to annul or, exceptionally, amend a decision of the meeting of co-owners if it is biased, taken to harm the co-owners or disregard their rights, or affected by an error in counting the votes. The action must be brought within 90 days of the meeting, on pain of forfeiture.

What it means for your syndicate

The 90-day deadline, raised from 60 to 90 days by Bill 16, is strict: after it, the decision can no longer be challenged on those grounds.

A sound meeting decision rests on faithful minutes and an accurate vote count, two things often at the heart of a challenge.

CondoAide certifies the vote count and keeps the meeting's minutes in the register, documenting how the vote unfolded.
