To objective of the course is to make legal practitioners aware of the current challenges that not only effect the daily administration of surrender procedures but erode the basic premise of cooperation based on mutual trust and mutual recognition. Participants will understand
What steps to make if concerns over detention conditions arise in the course of administering an EAW?
How to deal with an issuing authority if its judicial nature is in doubt or its independence is questionable?
How to accommodate EAWs with a view to requests from-third countries, parallel and previous procedures?
The course is especially interesting for legal practitioners working in the field of criminal law, dealing with cross border criminal cases, but is of relevance to all having a particular interest in the EU Area of Freedom Security and Justice based on the principles of mutual recognition and mutual trust.
The course is based on short presentations complemented with practice oriented discussions led by experts who have and in –depth understanding of the EAW. Departing from the very rich case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union the course will focus on practical issues arising in the daily administration of the EAW.
Participants will have a nuanced understanding of the practical application of the EAW, fundamental rights issues directly affecting the execution of an EAW, and the recent case law of the CJEU related to the EAW. Attending the course participants will have a clear understanding of the complex environment that surrounds the application of the EAW today.
