Article 379-6 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

The provisions of this chapter shall apply to persons remanded for related offences. The court may, however, on the application of the public prosecutor and after hearing the observations of the parties, order the severance of the proceedings concerning them. These persons are then deemed to have been referred to the criminal court and may be tried there in absentia.

Les dispositions du présent chapitre sont applicables aux personnes renvoyées pour délits connexes. La cour peut toutefois, sur réquisitions du ministère public et après avoir entendu les observations des parties, ordonner la disjonction de la procédure les concernant. Ces personnes sont alors considérées comme renvoyées devant le tribunal correctionnel et peuvent y être jugées par défaut.
