Question juridique clé
Whether the telephone operator had a contractual or legal duty to monitor subscriber traffic and warn of excessive spending.
Solution extraite
No such duty could be derived from analogy to contractor diligence, good faith, or the telecommunications legislation.
Motifs extraits
The subscription contract is an innominate contract; the operator is not in a contractor-like relationship and the applicable statutes do not imply continuous monitoring or warning duties. Protecting the subscriber against excessive spending requires a clear legislative basis.
