If the assize court answers in the negative to the question provided for in article D. 47-37-5, it orders the accused to be transferred to a subsequent hearing of the Assize Court, which proceeds in the same way as in the case of a transfer ordered by the investigating court. This committal decision may not be appealed.
If the accused was placed under a committal order, he shall remain detained in accordance with the provisions of Article 181, without prejudice to his ability to request his release at any time. The time limits laid down in paragraphs eight and nine of Article 181 shall apply.
The Assize Court ruling on a referral is not bound by the answer given by the first Assize Court to the question provided for by Article D. 47-37-5.
