Reference decision: Court of Cassation, Criminal Division • No. 25-82.187 • 2026-05-13
This decision provides important insight into your property law. Here is what it changes for you.
The situation
A ground of appeal criticising the decision of the presiding judge of the Crown Court to refuse a request to view audiovisual recordings of the accused's police custody interviews, or to admit a document into evidence, is inoperative since the court was subsequently seized of an identical request to which it responded by an interlocutory ruling. The allegation that investigators did not fully transcribe the accused's statements during his police custody interviews constitutes a challenge to the content of the interview records within the meaning of Article 64-1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
What the law says
This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.
Key points
- Strictly comply with the statutory time limits for appeals
- Keep all your supporting documents (title deeds, deeds, correspondence)
- Anticipate: preventive advice always costs less than litigation
