Article 16-1 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

Within one month of being notified of the decision to refuse, suspend or withdraw authorisation, the judicial police officer may ask the public prosecutor to withdraw the decision. The public prosecutor must give a ruling within one month. If he fails to do so, his silence will be deemed to constitute rejection of the request.

Le procureur général doit statuer dans un délai d’un mois. A défaut, son silence vaut rejet de la demande.
