About this statute
The amended Civil Code Article 205 also applies to interest debts agreed before the amendment took effect, if those debts arise after the amendment takes effect. If an interest rate was agreed before the Civil Code debt chapter took effect, the rule in Article 204 still applies when the rate exceeds 12% per year. This provision says unpaid interest debts that arose before the Civil Code obligations section took effect are calculated under that Code; but if the total unpaid interest at the time of commencement exceeds the principal, it still may not go beyond one-interest-on-principal limits. The amended Article 213(3) also applies to people who, before the Civil Code obligations amendment took effect, were liable for damages and had to restore the original state. The amended rule in Civil Code Article 216-1 also applies to debts that arose before the obligations chapter amendment took effect.
