For the application of the provisions of the second paragraph of Article 495-19 and first paragraph of article 495-21, only requests or complaints in which the person either denies having committed the offence, or admits having committed the offence while providing detailed information likely to justify discontinuing the proceedings for legal or expediency reasons, are considered to be reasoned.
The public prosecutor forwards the dispute mentioned in the third paragraph of 2° of article D. 45-16, along with his or her submissions, to the judge mentioned in the first paragraph of article 495-21. This judge makes a reasoned decision solely on the basis of the challenge and these submissions, unless he or she deems it necessary to hear the person. This order is communicated to the Public Prosecutor and notified to the person by registered letter. If the contested notice of inadmissibility is declared irregular, the public prosecutor must either close the case without further action or initiate public proceedings.
