Article D49-41-2 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

If he confirms an order refusing to grant leave to go out, an authorisation to go out under escort or a reduced sentence, the president of the enforcement division of the court of appeal may, in a reasoned decision, decide that the convicted person is not eligible to make a similar application for a period of one year.

In the event of an appeal against an order to withdraw a sentence reduction, the president may, on cross-appeal by the public prosecutor or at the request of the public prosecutor, order a withdrawal for a longer period than that set by the sentence enforcement judge, within the limit resulting from the provisions of l’article 721.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article D49-41-2

S’il confirme une ordonnance refusant l’octroi d’une permission de sortir, d’une autorisation de sortir sous escorte ou d’une réduction de peine, le président de la chambre de l’application des peines de la cour d’appel peut, par une décision motivée, décider que le condamné n’est pas recevable à déposer une demande similaire pendant un délai d’un an.

En cas d’appel d’une ordonnance de retrait d’une réduction de peine, le président peut, sur appel incident du parquet ou sur réquisition du procureur général, ordonner un retrait d’une durée plus importante que celle fixée par le juge de l’application des peines, dans la limite résultant des dispositions de l’article 721.
