Jean Danet, Competition of criminal proceedings
The diversification of the procedures used to process crimes takes the shape of a real competition between procedures when their application fields are close. The files are then dispatched according to criteria resting on the penalties that might be delivered in each procedure and to other intrinsic qualities the prosecutors find in them. This new situation affects the attitude of the lawmakers toward an indefinitely perfectible procedural law, the role of the actors as well as the perception by those to be tried of what the procedure is.


Key Words : Criminal procedure – crime – process – legal answer – diversification - competition
