When deciding whether to grant one of the measures provided for in Articles 712-6 and 712-7, the sentence enforcement courts may in the same judgment, at the request of the convicted person, relieve him or her in whole or in part, including as regards duration, of a prohibition resulting ipso jure from a criminal conviction or imposed as an additional penalty, either from holding a public office or a professional or social activity, or from exercising a commercial or industrial profession, from directing, administering, managing or controlling in any capacity whatsoever, directly or indirectly, for his own account or for the account of another, a commercial or industrial enterprise or a commercial company.
This decision may also be taken by the sentence enforcement judge, ruling in accordance with article 712-6, prior to the granting of a sentence adjustment measure, in order to allow it to be pronounced at a later date. It may be made by order unless the Public Prosecutor objects.
Under the same conditions, the sentence enforcement courts may also, in the cases provided for by the first two paragraphs, exclude from bulletin no. 2 of the criminal record the convictions that stand in the way of the sentence adjustment project.
