Abstract
In this paper, our first goal is to rigorously define a Lévy process pinned at random time. Our second task is to establish the Markov property with respect to its completed natural filtration and thus with respect to the usual augmentation of the latter. The resulting conclusion is the right-continuity of completed natural filtration. Certain examples of such process are considered.
