Proposition de loi visant à sécuriser le mécanisme de purge des nullités

This is a private member's bill (proposition de loi ordinaire) introduced in the French National Assembly during the 17th legislature. Its title refers to the 'purge des nullités', a procedural mechanism in French criminal law under which certain procedural defects can be cured or lose their effect, so that they can no longer be raised later in proceedings. The bill aims to make this mechanism more secure, which suggests a focus on legal certainty in criminal procedure. The bill would mainly affect judges, prosecutors, defence lawyers, and parties to criminal proceedings, since the rules on when procedural nullities can be raised determine how cases are conducted.
