Full text
46.1. In no case may an accused who pleads guilty to or is convicted of an offence be imposed a greater punishment by reason of a previous conviction unless the prosecutor notified the accused before he made his plea that a greater punishment would be sought by reason of the previous conviction.
Proof of a previous conviction and of the transmission of the notice is incumbent upon the prosecutor, and shall not be brought forth before the accused pleads guilty or is convicted.
