"A vous abstenir, tant pendant la durée de votre occupation qu’après celle-ci, et ce, conformément à l’art. 17ter de la loi relative aux contrats de travail, sans la moindre réserve..."
I confess I have never seen "17ter" before. Dare I ask if this is a typo? Or is this an abbreviation I should know - and if so, what is it?
Thanks in advance.

On that KudoZ link from Charlotte, someone makes the valid point that 17.3 will do as well (ie after 17.1 and 17.2) - maybe that is more idiomatic in a legal context?
