🇬🇧 English

This French government decree formally accepts the resignation of notary Guillaume François-Philippe Forgues based in Paris. As a direct consequence, the specific notary office (office de notaire) that he held is officially abolished and removed from the existing structure of notarial positions in France. The decree consists of only three short articles and will be published in the Journal officiel de la République française to take legal effect. This action reflects the French state's authority to control the number and location of notarial offices, which are public ministerial positions with a limited total number regulated by the government.
