Jurisprudence:  

On April 6, 2016, the Paris Instance Court decided that subletting on a peer-to-peer platform without the landlord’s permission was constitutes illegal subletting. The tenant was evicted and had to pay 5000 € in damages and interest, as well as 25 000 € in legal fees.

As an illustration:  

Hélène owned her property for eight years. Her neighbors contacted her because they could no longer sleep because of the noise coming from her apartment. Hélène saw her apartment for rent on the internet and decided to mandate us to prove this subletting, as well as the neighborhood disturbances.
