Article R1455-8 of the French Labour Code

If it appears to it that the application lodged before it exceeds its powers, and when this application is of particular urgency, the summary proceedings panel may, under the following conditions, refer the case back to the judgment office:
1° The agreement of all the parties is required;
2° The summary proceedings panel must have made an attempt at conciliation in a non-public hearing and in accordance with the rules laid down by article R. 1454-10.
The notification to the parties of the summary proceedings order mentioning the date of the hearing of the judgement committee is equivalent to a summons to appear in court.

S’il lui apparaît que la demande formée devant elle excède ses pouvoirs, et lorsque cette demande présente une particulière urgence, la formation de référé peut, dans les conditions suivantes, renvoyer l’affaire devant le bureau de jugement :
1° L’accord de toutes les parties est nécessaire ;
2° La formation de référé doit avoir procédé à une tentative de conciliation en audience non publique et selon les règles fixées par l’article R. 1454-10.
La notification aux parties de l’ordonnance de référé mentionnant la date de l’audience du bureau de jugement vaut citation en justice.
