| Summary: | The owners of a building (A.B._______, B.B._______ and C.B._______) appealed against the decision of a court of first instance, which allowed the company E.________ Sàrl to register a legal craftsman mortgage on their property. The owners argued that the company did not prove that it actually carried out work, and that the subcontractor paid the bill. However, the Court of Appeal ruled in favor of the company and upheld the original decision. The court found that the company had provided sufficient evidence of the work done. The documents that were supposed to prove the payment by the subcontractor were considered by the court as not credible. The appeal of the owners was rejected, and they had to bear the court costs of the appeal proceedings. |
