Article 155 of the French Code of civil procedure

The investigative measure is carried out under the supervision of the judge who ordered it when he does not carry it out himself.

When the measure is ordered by a panel, the supervision is exercised by the judge who was in charge of the investigation. Failing this, it is exercised by the chairman of the panel if it has not been entrusted to a member of the panel.

The supervision of the execution of this measure may also be carried out by the judge designated under the conditions of Article 155-1.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 155

La mesure d’instruction est exécutée sous le contrôle du juge qui l’a ordonnée lorsqu’il n’y procède pas lui-même.

Lorsque la mesure est ordonnée par une formation collégiale, le contrôle est exercé par le juge qui était chargé de l’instruction. A défaut, il l’est par le président de la formation collégiale s’il n’a pas été confié à un membre de celle-ci.

Le contrôle de l’exécution de cette mesure peut également être assuré par le juge désigné dans les conditions de l’article 155-1.
