Article D49-67 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

Whether or not they have brought a civil action during the proceedings, victims who wish to be informed of the sentenced person’s release in accordance with the provisions of Articles 712-16-1 and 712-16-2 or who wishes to be informed of the end of the probationary suspension in accordance with the provisions of Article 745 may, by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, make their change of address known to the public prosecutor or the public prosecutor at the court that handed down the conviction.

This information is forwarded by the public prosecutor to the sentenced person’s enforcement judge to be filed in the “victim” section of the individual file provided for in article D. 49-29.

The victim or civil party may request that this information remain confidential and not be communicated to the convicted person or his lawyer.
