The sentence enforcement judge is also competent to issue a reasoned judgment, under the conditions provided for in article 712-6, revocation of conditional release or suspension of enforcement of the sentence and to impose the custodial sentence or measure involving deprivation of liberty provided for in the conviction or the probation decision issued by the authorities of the sentencing Member State, in the case of an alternative sanction.
Where a person has been sentenced to an alternative penalty and the sentence does not include a custodial penalty or measure involving deprivation of liberty to be enforced in the event of non-compliance with that penalty, the enforcement judge shall notify the public prosecutor in the event of non-compliance with the obligations or injunctions mentioned in the alternative penalty so that the latter can assess the action to be taken in the light of Articles 434-38 et seq. of the Criminal Code.
Where such non-compliance with the alternative penalty does not constitute a criminal offence under French law, the public prosecutor will inform the competent authority of the sentencing State of these facts and of the impossibility for the French judicial authorities to rule on the case.
