Article R57-4 of the French Code of Criminal Procedure

In the event of a new prosecution being brought against a convicted offender under his supervision, the enforcement judge is notified by the public prosecutor. He will provide this magistrate with any information he deems useful regarding the behaviour of the sentenced person; in particular, he will give his opinion on the appropriateness of any decision to modify or revoke the measure from which the sentenced person benefits, which would fall within the jurisdiction of the trial court.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article R57-4

En cas de nouvelle poursuite exercée contre un condamné placé sous son contrôle, le juge de l’application des peines en est avisé par le procureur de la République. Il communique à ce magistrat les renseignements qui lui paraissent utiles sur le comportement du condamné ; il lui donne notamment son avis sur l’opportunité de toute décision de modification ou de révocation de la mesure dont bénéficie le condamné, qui serait de la compétence de la juridiction de jugement.
