Article 605 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

The Cour de cassation, before ruling on the merits, investigates whether the appeal has been properly lodged. If it considers that the legal conditions have not been met, it issues, depending on the case, a ruling of inadmissibility, or a ruling of forfeiture.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article 605

La Cour de cassation, avant de statuer au fond, recherche si le pourvoi a été régulièrement formé. Si elle estime que les conditions légales ne sont pas remplies, elle rend, suivant les cas, un arrêt d’irrecevabilité, ou un arrêt de déchéance.
