THE EXECUTION OF THE IMMEDIATE ARREST MEASURE

The immediate arrest measure ordered by the judge is a preventive measure aimed at preventing the convicted person who was in a state of freedom from evading the execution of the sentence. It is thus a measure that derogates from articles 94 and 1 02 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, which stipulate that the time limit for appeal and opposition is an obstacle to the execution of the judgment. The derogation is located in article 1 10 of the aforementioned Code, which gives the public prosecutor the power to have the convicted person apprehended before the expiration of the eight-day period following the irrevocable conviction, in the case of a conviction with immediate arrest.
