Lawyers Protest Against The SURE Draft Bill
Lawyers participate in a demonstration against the ''SURE'' (Useful, Fast and Effective Sentencing) draft bill, specifically its proposal to introduce plea bargaining in criminal matters, as the French Senate begins debating the text, in Paris, France, on April 13, 2026. Lawyers across France stage a nationwide ''Justice morte'' (Dead Justice) stoppage called by most of the country's 164 bar associations, as the Senate opens debate on the bill, which the government states is needed to address a backlog of more than 6,000 pending criminal cases.
