Right To Repent

The right to repent is based on a right of withdrawal which leaves the contractor a period of time to revoke the consent he has given. The contract has been signed but in cases where there is a right of repentance, a withdrawal period allows the cancellation of the engagement for a period running from a starting point fixed by the legislator.

The right to repent retroactively cancels the contract, unlike the cooling-off period which suspends it.
