The Court of Cassation renders its decision on Wednesday afternoon on the appeal filed by Sophie Patterson-Spatz. She accuses Gérald Darmanin whom she accuses of rape, which he contests.
During the non-public hearing before the highest judicial court on February 17, both the rapporteur and the advocate general concluded that the complainant's appeal was rejected, two sources close to the case indicated. The Court can also order a new hearing in the investigating chamber of the Paris Court of Appeal to examine the dismissal.
