Law/Patents - Law (general) / prosecution service
French term or phrase: orientation
This article about statistics on the justice system breaks down the different steps in a case's development.

One of these steps is the "orientation" of the case at the hands of the prosecution service.

I had originally opted for 'decision', believing that one would essentially have been taken for this 'orientation' to occur. Would you think 'classification' to in fact be better?

Here is one example:
"Une filière est constituée d'une succession de phases (saisine, orientation, décision…), elles-mêmes rassemblant une ou plusieurs étapes, propres ou non à la filière considérée."
