Applications by the sentenced person for the imposition or modification of one of the measures covered by the provisions of Article 712-4 shall be the subject of a written request addressed to the sentence enforcement judge, signed by the sentenced person or their lawyer.
This request is delivered to the clerk’s office of the sentence enforcement judge against a receipt or sent by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt. If the sentenced person is detained, it may be declared to the head of the prison under the conditions set out in the last two paragraphs of article 148-7.
Where the application falls within the jurisdiction of the sentence enforcement court, the clerk of the sentence enforcement judge shall forward a copy of it without delay to the registry of that court, where it is separate from the registry of the sentence enforcement judge, unless the application is inadmissible under the provisions of Article D. 49-12.
The enforcement judge and the enforcement court are not obliged to respond to requests made without complying with the conditions set out in this article.
