When the woman who ran the cafe at the time the Paras dropped in died some years ago, the property was left half and half to her two daughters. French probate law stipulated that one daughter would have to buy out the other, at 50% of the probate valuation of the property.<br /><br />Neither daughter would agree to be the one to be bought out. The position was deadlocked. An old French law was brought into play to resolve the impasse. The two women and a notaire were sat at a table in a room and a candle was lit on the table. If the women had not come to an agreement by the time the candle burnt out, the notaire would decide. And that is what happened.
