The judicial measure for the extension of the detention of a foreign national at an identification and deportation center, as provided by Article 14, paragraph 5, Legislative Decree No. 286 of 1998, can only be issued following a summary proceeding characterized by the hearing of the person concerned and the mandatory participation of the defense lawyer. To this end, the request for extension and the accompanying documents must be received by the office of the justice of the peace in time so that, after convening the person concerned and the defense lawyer, a chamber hearing can be held, and a reasoned decree can be issued within forty-eight hours of receiving the request, in accordance with paragraph four of Article 14, as cited, but before the expiration of the deadline initially set with the validation.
