If the victim is confronted with a person heard under the conditions provided for in Article 61-1 for a felony or misdemeanour punishable by a prison sentence, it may also ask to be assisted, in accordance with the procedures set out in Article 63-4-3, by a lawyer chosen by him or by his legal representative if he is a minor, or, at his request, appointed by the President of the Bar.
The victim is informed of this right before the confrontation takes place. They are also informed that the costs will be borne by them unless they meet the conditions for access to legal aid.
