The person who holds the property that is the subject of the freezing order or any other person who claims to have a right to the said property may, by means of a request delivered to the registry of the investigating division of the territorially competent court of appeal within ten days of the date on which the decision in question was enforced, lodge an appeal against the latter. The provisions of article 173 shall then apply.
The appeal does not have suspensive effect and does not allow the substantive grounds for the freezing decision to be challenged.
The investigating chamber may, by a decision that is not subject to appeal, authorise the issuing State to intervene at the hearing through a person authorised by that State for that purpose or, where appropriate, directly through the telecommunications means provided for in l’article 706-71. When the issuing State is authorised to intervene, it does not become a party to the proceedings.
