Following unpaid rent, I obtained the judicial termination of the lease and an eviction judgment. The accommodation is in Martinique. Can the tenant benefit from the "winter break" from November 1st?

Pursuant to Article L.412-6 of the Code of Civil Enforcement Procedures (CPCE), the winter truce which suspends any execution of an eviction extends from November 1 to March 31 of the following year in Metropolitan France.

But in Guyana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Reunion Islands and Mayotte, the period of suspension of the eviction of occupants of residential premises is set by the prefect, after assent of the general council, for a period of three and a half months, in order to take into account, the specific climatic features of each community (article L.611-1 of the CPCE).

Theoretically speaking, this so-called “cyclonic truce” period extends from July 15 to October 30 in Martinique.
