Martínková, Adéla ; Scheu, Harald Christian (advisor) ; Navrátil, Petr (referee)
European Arrest Warrant in the Light of Principle of Mutual Trust and Protection of Fundamental Rights Abstract European arrest warrant (EAW) is one of key instruments of mutual recognition in criminal matters. Essential elements of its fonctioning differentiate it from a traditional system of extradition and allow the system of EAW to be simpler and more efficient. EAW owns its efficiency to principle of mutual trust, which lays at its core. However, mutual trust cannot be blind and one of its limits is protection of fundamental rights. This thesis aims to find answers for questions: what are the fonctions of both principles within EAW, how are they balanced and what development has taken place so far in this matter. In order to do so, attention is brought first to the development of cooperation in criminal matters. Second chapter focuses on principle of mutual trust, which is essential for mutual recognition and EAW, but lacks a clear definition within EU law. Following chapter introduces protection of fundamental rights in EU and shows how it affects level of mutual trust between states. In the case of EAW, lack of protection of fundamental rights causes for states to be less willing to surrender a person to other member states. Level of fundamental rights protection affects the level of mutual trust and...

European Arrest Warrant
Bicanová, Jitka ; Jelínek, Jiří (advisor) ; Sváček, Jan (referee) ; Záhora, Jozef (referee)
European Arrest Warrant is an institute of the police and judicial cooperation in the criminal matters. Based is on the mutual confidence of Member States in its legal systems. His formation was caused not only by the failed ratification of the international agreements governing extradition, but also by the terrorist attacks occurred on 11 September 2001 in New York. European Arrest Warrant meant the breakthrough into the national traditional sovereignty of Member States and that all to ensure the area of freedom, safety and justice inside Europe. Formation of the European Arrest Warrant led to the restriction of some principles, which dominated to the extradition, when between the most important ones belongs the principle of surrender of own citizens. European Arrest Warrant is the necessary means and tool of police and judicial bodies in the fight against the national and multinational crime, whose use rises year from year.

Judicial and Police Cooperation in the European Union
Coufalová, Tereza ; Jelínek, Jiří (advisor) ; Tlapák Navrátilová, Jana (referee) ; Sváček, Jan (referee)
The criminal justice as well as the persons participating in criminal proceedings, they both are currently facing number of newly posed challenges and unanswered questions so far, due to the onward going integration of the European Union and much closer cooperation of the Member States, in the field of the Procedural Criminal Law. There have been established many new institutions within the field of the European Union in last few years and there were adopted many legal tools which directly influence the cooperation between the judicial and police authorities of individual countries. In connection with newly emerging forms of the crime and more coherent cooperation of the perpetrators of severe crime, the relevant authorities at the union level as well as at the national level encounter situations not being resolved at all, or which are specified by theoretical standards only and have not been put into practice yet. Due to the diversity and abundance of the legal tools and institutions which interfere the criminal law sphere without adjusting their mutual cooperation or without having sorted out the priority of application in many cases, the author of this thesis considers as an appropriate to have such comprehensive view to this relevant issue introduced to the specialized public, as well as having...

European arrest warrant
Bratský, Petr ; Herczeg, Jiří (advisor) ; Gřivna, Tomáš (referee)
Resumé The European Arrest Warrant The aim of my diploma thesis is to analyze the Framework Decision of 13 of June on the European Arrest Warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States (2002/584/JHA), next as "FWD", and how it has contributed to the creation of new simplified and more effective system of extradition of criminals among the Member States of the European Union. The historical development of international judicial cooperation in criminal matters and the extradition procedure will be discussed first in order to understand the need for a new solution for handling with the new forms of organised cross boarder crime in the European Union that were brought by the introduction of the principle of free movement of persons and the abolition of boarder checks after the Schengen Agreement. This will lead us to the critical analysis of fundamental principles on which the European Arrest warrant is based, its practical application by the judicial authorities in different Member States and core problematic issues that the daily practise of surrender procedure is nowadays facing. The possible solutions for such questions will be presented, not only on the state but also on the Union level. A part of my research is also devoted to the transposition of the FWD into the Czech legal order and...

Krečová, Ivana ; Grmelová, Nicole (advisor) ; Levý, Jan (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is beside legal definition of extradition also to answer a question, whether the replacement of classic extradition within the European Union by European Arrest Warrant was successful and what its tendency is since the implementation. The thesis also deals with a change of the role of Eurojust which was brought by the Lisbon Treaty. In the theoretical part the thesis focuses on historical development of extradition within the international judicial cooperation, explanation of basic terms and legal regulation of extradition. Development of extradition within the European Union is also described there and so is the comparison of extradition to European Arrest Warrant. The practical part is then dedicated to analysis of particular court decisions as an example how extradition and European Arrest Warrant work in practice.
