Designation of Chamber of Accusation for Reopening Investigation Involving Sitting Judge
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe General Prosecutor requested the designation of the Chamber of Accusation to handle the potential reopening of an investigation concerning forgery, false statements, and press law violations, which had previously resulted in a dismissal order and involved allegations against a sitting judge who had previously served as the investigating judge. The Court, referencing Article 681 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, reasoned that since the magistrate whose conduct was in question in the potential new investigation could himself be charged with offenses committed in the exercise of his functions, the Montpellier Court of Appeal's Chamber of Accusation was designated to undertake the instruction should the investigation be reopened based on new charges by the Prosecutor General of that court.
