On a proposal from the Minister of Justice or the first president of the court of appeal in whose jurisdiction the accused labour tribunal member sits, the chairman of the National Disciplinary Commission may suspend a labour tribunal member for a period not exceeding six months, where there are facts against the person concerned, who has first been heard by the first president, that are likely to result in a…

A councillor who refuses to be installed or who has been declared to have resigned may, of his own motion or at his own request, be relieved of the incapacity provided for in article L. 1441-10.
Applications for relief from incapacity are addressed to the Minister of Justice. They are admissible only if a period of one year has elapsed since the refusal to install or the resignation. Any application that is rejected after an examination on its merits may not be renewed until a further period of one year has elapsed. A decree is issued to raise the status.
The performance of the duties of labour councillor and participation in the activities referred to in articles L. 1442-2 and L. 1442-5 may not be a reason for sanction or termination of the employment contract. Dismissal of a Conseiller Prud’homme is subject to the administrative authorisation procedure provided for in Book IV of Part Two.
