Any adult can decide to\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>disappear\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0without giving any news to his relatives.\u00a0When should research be undertaken?\u00a0What will be the steps to follow?<\/span><\/p>\n

Do we have the right to disappear?<\/span><\/h2>\n

The adult can always decide to change domicile and break all contact with his family.\u00a0Moreover, the address of an adult can only be given with his formal consent.\u00a0This rule is consistent with the fundamental principle of\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>freedom\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0to come and go.\u00a0Your lawyer from Nice is at your disposal to help you.<\/span><\/p>\n

When to engage in research?<\/span><\/h2>\n

There are three cases in which a search can be initiated following the disappearance of an adult.<\/span>
\u2013 First case: when the circumstances suggest that the disappearance is the result of a crime or offence.<\/span>
\u2013 Second case: the disappearance is of a worrying or suspicious nature, given the circumstances, age or state of health of the disappeared person.<\/span>
\u2013 Finally, third case: the person disappears for no apparent reason, to everyone\u2019s surprise.<\/span><\/p>\n

What steps to follow?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Relatives and family must make a declaration of disappearance to a police or gendarmerie service.\u00a0Searches will be carried out at regional and then national level for one year and the person will be registered in the file of wanted persons for one year.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the person is found?<\/span><\/h2>\n

If the person is found dead, the person who reported the disappearance is informed.\u00a0The date and place of death are communicated to him.\u00a0If the person is found alive, they are informed by report that, unless they object, their home address will be communicated to the declarant.\u00a0The address must be communicated as soon as possible.\u00a0If she objects, this refusal must be confirmed by a judicial police officer.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the person is not found?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Beyond a period of 6 months from the searches carried out at national level, a \u201c\u00a0<\/span>vain search certificate<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u201d may be issued by the service which received the declaration of disappearance.\u00a0This document has no value in itself.\u00a0It will nevertheless be useful in the context of certain procedures (divorce, inheritance, etc.).\u00a0It can be appreciated by the courts as an element establishing the presumption of absence and does not prevent further research.<\/span><\/p>\n

What status does the missing person take?<\/span><\/h2>\n

When the person has disappeared in worrying circumstances, the family can apply to the tribunal de grande instance to certify the death of the disappeared person.\u00a0In this case, his estate will be opened and his marriage dissolved.\u00a0If the person returns, he can request the annulment of this judgment.<\/span>
If the person has disappeared under uncertain and\/or curious conditions, the family can seize the guardianship judge to open a presumption of absence.\u00a0The person will then be considered alive for a period of ten years and their property and heritage will be managed by an administrator (who may be a member of their family).\u00a0If after ten years, the person has not reappeared, there may be a declaration of absence.\u00a0This declaration will have all the effects of a declaration of death (open succession, dissolved marriage).\u00a0If the person reappears, he can request the annulment of this judgment.\u00a0She will have to prove her identity and re-establish her marital status, which will be that of a deceased person.<\/span>
