A foreign national who is the subject of a request to take charge or take back may be placed under house arrest by the administrative authority for the time strictly necessary to determine the State responsible for examining his asylum application.
Where a requested State has refused to take charge of or take back the foreign national, the house arrest imposed pursuant to this article shall be terminated immediately, unless a request for re-examination is sent to this State as soon as possible or if another State may be requested.
In the event of notification of a transfer decision, the house arrest may continue if the foreign national cannot leave French territory immediately but the execution of the transfer decision remains a reasonable prospect.A foreign national who, having been assigned to residence pursuant to this article or placed in administrative detention, has not complied with the transfer decision to which he or she is subject or, having complied, has returned to France while this decision is still enforceable, may again be assigned to residence pursuant to this article.
