Annotation de l'entreprise
Section 269 sits in Book 4, Title 1, Chapter 2 on emergency applications, the fast track a plaintiff uses when a provisional measure under Section 254 cannot wait for the ordinary inquiry. It links that fast track back to the general regime: an order granted on emergency grounds carries the same operative effect as an ordinary provisional measure under Section 258 and Section 258 bis. Because such orders can bind the defendant before a full hearing, the section also gives the court a brake, allowing it to hold enforcement until it decides an application to revoke the order or until the plaintiff furnishes security. It works together with Section 267, under which the court considers the emergency application urgently.
Pourquoi cela est important en pratique
The emergency track is powerful but exceptional. Courts have held that a measure is only treated as an emergency order under Sections 267 and 269 when the court actually acts urgently and the order is immediately enforceable without first serving the other side; if the court instead sets an ordinary inquiry and serves a copy on the defendant, the matter is an ordinary provisional-measure application. If you are on the receiving end of an emergency order, you can apply to revoke it and ask the court to suspend enforcement or require the plaintiff to post security. These are fast-moving steps where comparaître devant un tribunal en Thaïlande is best done with counsel.

Supreme Court Judgment No. 1509/2514 (1971)
An application is handled under the emergency track of Sections 267 and 269 only where the court acts urgently and the order is immediately enforceable without prior service; if the court sets an ordinary inquiry hearing and serves a copy on the defendant, the matter proceeds as an ordinary provisional-measure application.
In a dispute over the return of a child, the plaintiff filed for a provisional measure. The court set an inquiry on the fourth day, served a copy on the defendant, and after the inquiry ordered the child returned within three days. The Supreme Court held this was an ordinary inquiry, not the emergency procedure under Sections 267 and 269, because the court did not act urgently and the order was not immediately enforceable without service.

Supreme Court Judgment No. 6091/2534 (1991)
Where the court makes its order the day after the application and directs the defendants to act within fifteen days, without treating the matter as urgent and without the order being immediately enforceable against all defendants without service, the procedure is an ordinary inquiry, not the emergency track under Sections 267 and 269.
The plaintiff sought a provisional order directing all defendants to lodge the shareholder register with the court within fifteen days, and the court so ordered the next day. The Supreme Court held that the court had not dealt with the request urgently and the order was not immediately enforceable without serving every defendant as Sections 267 and 269 require, so the matter was an ordinary inquiry rather than an emergency application.

It gives an urgently granted provisional measure the same operative effect as an ordinary measure under Sections 258 and 258 bis. The court can also suspend enforcement pending an application to revoke it or until the plaintiff provides security.
When is an order treated as an emergency order rather than an ordinary one?
Only when the court considers the application urgently and the order is immediately enforceable without first serving the other party. If the court sets an ordinary inquiry and serves a copy on the defendant, it is treated as an ordinary provisional-measure application.
