In England we use the opinion of the judge much more, makes it easier to make the sentence suitable to the crime.
I've never heard about such a law ; it would be strange for it does not correspond to what law is supposed to be and do. But I don't study law, so it may happen that such a law exist and I don't know it. I will try to ask one of my friends who studies law.

You both say that the sentence relies more on the judge, but don't you use customary laws ? So they have to judge according to precedents and can't do absolutely all they want, do they ?

Et oui, ça va. Juste quelques problèmes pour accéder à ma salle de cours...
