This is an essential reflection on the possible abuses of the criminal procedure and the need to reaffirm the rights of the defence, published in the &#8220;Business Legal Review&#8221; n\u00b052, 10 July 2025.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffc <a href=\"https:\/\/mag.blforums.com\/lenquete-preliminaire-ou-la-relegation-du-contradictoire-dans-lantichambre-de-la-justice\/#:~:text=Visions%20d'experts-,L'enqu%C3%AAte%20pr%C3%A9liminaire%20ou%20la%20rel%C3%A9gation%20du%20contradictoire,l'antichambre%20de%20la%20Justice&amp;amp;text=Secr%C3%A8te%20et%20non%20contradictoire%2C%20l,des%20droits%20de%20la%20d%C3%A9fense\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read the full article (only in French)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Secrecy and non-contradictory, the preliminary investigation remains, in our law, this irreconcilable procedure that resists the necessary exercise of the rights of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4608","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-publication"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
