The situation
The investigating chamber, which, in order to order the annulment of the police custody records and the interviews conducted during it, states that the person in police custody had the benefit of the presence of a lawyer but not of his assistance in conditions allowing him to organise his defence and to prepare with him the interrogations in which that lawyer could not, as French legislation stood, participate, correctly applies Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
What the law says
This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.
Key points to remember
- Strictly respect the legal time limits for appeals
- Keep all your supporting documents (titles, deeds, correspondence)
- Anticipate: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
