It is a file that has the effect of a small bomb within the Moselle labor courts. The case is surprising, because it involves a judge who officiated in Thionville – she has since resigned –, a lawyer at the departmental Medef. He is accused of having exerted, in 2020, pressure on two “employer” representatives of the trade section responsible for ruling on the procedure brought by a CGT trade unionist to his then boss, Castorama. This is none other than Didier Clausse, a well-known Moselle megaphone in the countryside.

Reporting in Metz
It all started from Thionville. From a report from the president of the labor court at the time, after an internal investigation. In a letter sent to the Attorney General of Metz and to the first president of the Metz Court of Appeal, in 2021, sixteen “employer” and “employee” representatives denounce the “unethical” actions of the one who allegedly tried to make tip the scales in the trial between Didier Clausse and his employer, worried about “union discrimination”. Due to his functions at the prud’homie messine – he was successively president and vice-president -, the file of the cégétiste, now in the hands of the Court of Cassation, had been disoriented in Thionville. Where the lawyer in question would then have tried to steer the procedure in favor of the DIY company, provide black on white advisers “employers”.
For now, the Medef representative says she is the subject of a “cabal”. And nothing would justify disciplinary proceedings against him to date, considers justice.
“Today, all of this is beyond me,” testifies the retired CGT student, in the office of his Metz lawyer, Me Bernard Petit. The latter will defend, during an upcoming criminal action, his interests and those of the departmental unions CGT and FO.
