Abstract

The European arrest warrant is the first concrete measure implementing the principle of mutual recognition of judicial decisions in European Union Criminal law, which the European Council referred to as the ‘cornerstone’ of judicial co-operation in the European Union. It is a judicial decision issued by a judicial authority of European Union Member State with a view to the arrest and surrender by another Member State of a requested person, for the purposes of conducting a criminal prosecution or executing a custodial sentence or detention order.
