Emergency appeal form against intolerable noise

Emergency appeal form against intolerable noise


Appeal pursuant to art. 700 cpc to obtain an order to inhibit and stop disturbing noises from the neighbour

When the noise does not constitute the crime of disturbing the peace because only the downstairs neighbor or a few others notice it, the only possible protection is to appeal to a civil judge. We go to court for two reasons. The first is, clearly, obtaining an order to stop the annoying noise emissions to be communicated to the person responsible; it can be obtained with an urgent appeal (the famous appeal pursuant to article 700 of the Code of Civil Procedure). The second reason that pushes the victim to obtain civil protection is the request for compensation; this is not a simple objective given that proof of damage is not believed to be implicit in the very fact of the noise.

At this point, you need an emergency appeal form against intolerable noises. I remind you, however, that with the urgent procedure you cannot obtain compensation for damages. For those, in fact, you must necessarily resort to ordinary action. In fact, the appeal pursuant to article 700 is not conceivable for requests for compensation. The purpose of this precautionary action is, in fact, to obtain immediate protection in the face of a serious offense - easily demonstrable - which, if not prevented as soon as possible, could irremediably compromise the rights of the applicant. These are precisely the two requirements of the appeal: the so-called fumus boni iuris (i.e. the appearance of the right) and the periculum in mora (the danger that, in the event of delayed protection, the right will be definitively damaged).

In the appeal you must first demonstrate the fact, i.e. the harassing behaviour. To this end, the Civil Code establishes that noises are considered prohibited when they exceed the "normal tolerability", a generic criterion that allows the court to evaluate the individual case on the basis of a series of indices (the persistence and voluntariness of the noise, the time it was produced, the place where the property is located and the consequent relationship between the neighbor's emissions and the background noise coming from outside the apartment).

Despite the summary nature of the judgement, you will therefore have to rely on the evidence of the offence, i.e. the noise emissions, which must necessarily be indicated in the emergency appeal form against noise. In this regard, the Court of Cassation said that the demonstration of the intolerability of noise can be given in various ways: not only with a phonometric assessment, but also through witness statements. Therefore, thanks to the hearing of the brief informants - this is how the witnesses are defined in the proceedings pursuant to art. 700 cpc – it is possible to demonstrate the presence of noisy emissions. The judge will then decide whether these should be considered intolerable.

All that remains is to leave you to the emergency appeal form pursuant to art. 700 cpc to obtain a stop noise order from your neighbor.
