Notification to French Government of the case brought by Nicolas Sarkozy.

The ECHR has communicated to the French Government the application Sarkozy v. France. This application is linked to two other applications which have also been communicated: Herzog v. France and the Paris Bar Association v. France.

The case concerns the use of transcripts of conversations between the applicant and his lawyer whilst their telephone lines were being tapped in connection with the so-called ‘wiretapping’ case.
