As part of this mission, the inspectors referred to in article L. 5411-1 may seize products on the basis of a judicial authorisation issued by an order of the liberty and custody judge. The request must include all the information required to justify the seizure. The seizure is carried out under the authority and control of the judge who authorised it.
The products seized are immediately inventoried. The inventory is attached to the on-the-spot report. The originals of the report and the inventory are sent to the judge who ordered the seizure within five days of their completion.
The liberty and custody judge may, at any time, order the release of the seizure.
