Article L3222-2 of the French Labour Code

At the adjournment hearing and in the light of the measures defined and, where applicable, carried out by the employer, the court will consider whether to waive the penalty or impose the penalties provided for by law.

However, if the time limit stipulated in the second paragraph of article L. 3222-1 has not been respected, the court may order a new and final adjournment and set a new time limit for the accused to comply with the injunction.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L3222-2

A l’audience de renvoi et au vu des mesures définies et, le cas échéant, exécutées par l’employeur, la juridiction apprécie s’il y a lieu de prononcer une dispense de peine ou d’infliger les peines prévues par la loi.

Toutefois, dans le cas où le délai prévu au deuxième alinéa de l’article L. 3222-1 n’a pas été respecté, la juridiction peut prononcer un nouvel et dernier ajournement et impartir un nouveau délai au prévenu pour exécuter l’injonction.
