It will explain and take a closer look at the European Arrest Warrant (EAW), the transfer of prisoners and supervision measures as an alternative to provisional detention.
The right to interpretation and translation of essential documents in EAW and other criminal proceedings, as well as how to work with interpreters and translators in such proceedings will also be examined. Insights from practitioners familiar with these instruments and who have been involved in representing foreign citizens in criminal proceedings will be shared.
