Topic:
This e-presentation provides a comprehensive understanding of the principles of mutual recognition, grounds for refusal and the complex dynamics of cooperation between EU Member States within the context of European Arrest Warrant (EAW) proceedings. The presentation examines critical aspects of the EAW, including double criminality, ne bis in idem and the safeguarding of fundamental rights. It particularly focuses on the evolution of the Court of Justice of the European Union's case law, from the paradoxical Grundza and Piotrowski cases to recent ones such as A and KL, and its impact on extradition.
