Article R15-33-66 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

If the offender refuses the proposed settlement or does not respond to it within the allotted time, or if he has not fulfilled his obligations within the allotted time, the mayor informs the public prosecutor.

If the settlement is fulfilled in full, the mayor also informs the public prosecutor, who then establishes that the public prosecution has been terminated.

Article R15-33-66

Si le contrevenant refuse la proposition de transaction ou n’y donne aucune réponse dans les délais impartis, ou s’il n’a pas exécuté ses obligations dans les délais impartis, le maire en informe le procureur de la République.

En cas d’exécution intégrale de la transaction, le maire en informe également le procureur de la République, qui constate alors l’extinction de l’action publique.
