Article 728-37 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

When requested to do so by the competent authority of the sentencing State, the public prosecutor will hear the sentenced person or the person responsible for assisting or representing them on account of their minority or a protection measure, if they are on French territory, in order to obtain their written or oral observations. These observations are attached to the file. Where appropriate, the court will obtain the sentenced person’s consent.

Lorsque l’autorité compétente de l’Etat de condamnation lui en fait la demande, le procureur de la République procède à l’audition de la personne condamnée ou de la personne chargée de l’assister ou de la représenter en raison de sa minorité ou d’une mesure de protection, si elle se trouve sur le territoire français, aux fins de recueillir ses observations écrites ou orales. Ces observations sont jointes au dossier. Le cas échéant, il recueille le consentement de la personne condamnée.
