Where the person under investigation is ordered to provide security or sureties, such security or sureties shall guarantee:
1° The representation of the person under investigation, the accused or the defendant in all the acts of the proceedings and for the enforcement of the judgment, as well as, where applicable, the performance of the other obligations imposed on him;
2° Payment in the following order:
a) Compensation for damage caused by the offence and restitution, as well as the maintenance debt when the person under investigation is prosecuted for failure to pay this debt;
b) Fines.
The decision of the investigating judge or the liberty and custody judge, determines the sums allocated to each of the two parts of the bond or sureties. The investigating judge or the liberty and custody judge may, however, decide that the securities will guarantee in their entirety the payment of the sums provided for in 2° or either of these sums.
Where the securities guarantee, in part or in full, the rights of one or more victims who have not yet been identified or who have not yet been made civil parties, they shall be established, under conditions specified by decree in the Conseil d’Etat, in the name of a provisional beneficiary acting on behalf of these victims and, where applicable, the Treasury.
A Conseil d’Etat decree shall set the amount above which the bond may not be paid in cash, unless otherwise decided by the liberty and custody judge or the investigating judge.
