Book excerpt: "The upgrade and modernisation of judicial cooperation and information exchange in criminal cases across the EU are crucial in light of the evolving security threat landscape and the fast pace of technological development, as acknowledged by the European Council in its Conclusions of October 2018. This need for immediate reaction and change has been further reinforced by the recent COVID-19 crisis and its impact on judicial cooperation in criminal matters. Many of the negative consequences of the crisis could have been avoided by having appropriate digital tools available. Following the October 2018 Conclusions, Eurojust called to create ‘Cross-Border Digital Criminal Justice’, a fast, reliable and secure IT infrastructure that would enable national prosecution authorities to interact with their counterparts, JHA agencies and EU bodies in the Justice and Home Affairs (JHA) area. Following the December 2018 Justice and Home Affairs Council Conclusions, the European Commission launched the Digital Criminal Justice project. The objective of this project is to shape a vision to design and implement a host of digital measures for the cross-border cooperation in criminal matters. This study is the first element of the Digital Criminal Justice project. Based on an online survey, country visits with national prosecutors and investigative judges as well as central authorities and stakeholder interviews with the Commission services, Joint Investigation Teams (JIT) members, the European Judicial Network (EJN) in criminal matters, JHA agencies (Eurojust, Europol, Frontex) and EU bodies (OLAF, the EPPO), as well as an Expert Group meeting with national representatives, the study team identified the needs and challenges to communicate and exchange case-related data in a digital and secure way when cooperating in cross-border cases"--
Download or read book Artificial Intelligence Supporting Cross border Cooperation in Criminal Justice written by and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past few years, significant groundwork has been done by both Eurojust and eu-LISA, as well as the European Commission to speed-up digital transformation and the adoption of IT solutions based on artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of Justice and Home Affairs (JHA). For example, the study on Cross-border Digital Criminal Justice, commissioned by DG JUST, performed an assessment of business needs in cross-border criminal justice cooperation and proposed a set of solutions tackling those needs. These solutions included, for example, the creation of a collaboration platform for Joint Investigation Teams (JITs)1 and a redesigned Eurojust Case Management System, where AI-based components were suggested for both. Artificial intelligence was also defined as a priority area in the Action Plan for e-Justice 2019-2023. This report goes a step further in exploring the relevant technologies and possible use-cases for the application of AI within the judicial field, specifically focusing on the support of cross-border collaboration in criminal justice. The first section of the report sets the scene, outlining the legal and policy context for the introduction of new technologies, including AI, in the field of justice. The second section of the report is dedicated to the discussion of relevant technologies and their possible applications in the context of cross-border criminal justice cooperation.

Download or read book Admissibility of Evidence in EU Cross Border Criminal Proceedings written by Lorena Bachmaier Winter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-13 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a systematic and analytical account of the problems facing transnational criminal justice. It details actual problems arising in the transnational prosecution of crimes; assesses existing obstacles on admissibility of evidence; in particular with regard to electronic evidence, assesses the impact that the impediment of free circulation of evidence has on fundamental rights of the defendants facing criminal trial; and finally drafts a proposal for the future of regulation for this complex topic. The book therefore contributes to the debate on the creation of an Area of Freedom, Security and Justice in the EU. It offers insights on how to outline the main general rules that could be adopted at EU level in a manner that adequately balances the need for efficiency in prosecution and the protection of human rights. With contributions of renowned experts in the field, the book addresses the discussion of a potential legislative proposal with the help of insight into the experience and conceptual context of the rules of evidence at the national level. The legislative proposal was adopted by the European Law Institute, who supported the work reflected in this book.
Download or read book European Investigation Order written by Maria Angela Biasiotti and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the era of globalisation, cross-border crimes are becoming increasingly common. The nature of these crimes is complex, and cross-border evidence exchange is, therefore, crucial to the successful prosecution of these offences. The exchange of evidence between countries can provide invaluable assistance in solving crimes that have an international dimension. The European Investigation Order (EIO) allows judicial authorities to request evidence more quickly and easily than via traditional instruments. The EIO has become the primary legal tool for gathering trans-border evidence, replacing the traditional Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA) conventions previously used. However, the EIO is not the only pertinent legal instrument for cross-border evidence gathering within the EU. Accordingly, professionals need a clear understanding of this subject. Exchanging evidence among judicial authorities in the EU Member States presupposes two essential components. First, there must be a secure communication channel. This is provided by e-CODEX, which offers a European digital infrastructure for secure cross-border communication in the field of justice. Recently (May 30th, 2022), the e-CODEX system became the digital backbone of EU judicial cooperation in civil and criminal matters on the basis of Regulation 2022/850. To achieve effective evidence exchange via EIO/MLA legal instruments, there must also be a communication tool. This is provided by the e-Evidence Digital Exchange System, which is capable of managing any EIO/MLA procedures/instruments, from the e-Forms (EIO Annexes) to the whole business logic, on the basis of the e-CODEX system. Finally, it is essential to use a uniform standard for the representation of evidence data and metadata, so as to streamline the process and make investigations more effective, in particular when it comes to complicated criminal cases where it is key to find either correlations among different cases or to extract multiple types of data from the same inspection. The importance of cross-border evidence exchange in criminal matters cannot be overstated. This book addresses all the above-mentioned aspects, offering an up-to-date overview of scenarios in cross-border judicial cooperation from both juridical and technical standpoints.

Download or read book Surveillance and Privacy in the Digital Age written by Valsamis Mitsilegas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What impact has the evolution and proliferation of surveillance in the digital age had on fundamental rights? This important collection offers a critical assessment from a European, transatlantic and global perspective. It tracks four key dimensions: digitalisation, privatisation, de-politicisation/de-legalisation and globalisation. It sets out the legal and policy demands that recourse to 'the digital' has imposed. Exploring the question across key sectors, it looks at privatisation through the prism of those demands on the private sector to co-operate with the state's security needs. It goes on to assess de-politicisation and de-legalisation, reflecting the fact that surveillance is often conducted in secret. Finally, it looks at applicable law in a globalised digital world. The book, with its exploration of cutting-edge issues, makes a significant contribution to our understanding of privacy in this new digital landscape.

With contributions from leading experts, focusing on their respective fields of research, the book is preoccupied with defining cross-border or ‘Euro-crimes’, while allowing Member States to sanction criminal behaviour through mutual cooperation. It contains a web of institutions, agencies and external liaisons, which ensure the protection of EU citizens from serious crime, while protecting the fundamental rights of suspects and criminals. Students and scholars of EU criminal law will benefit from the comprehensive research present in this Handbook. National and EU policy-makers, as well as judges, defence lawyers and human rights lawyers will find the analysis of current legal action, combined with proposed solutions, useful to their work

Download or read book Handling and Exchanging Electronic Evidence Across Europe written by Maria Angela Biasiotti and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a general overview on the handling and regulating electronic evidence in Europe, presenting a standard for the exchange process. Chapters explore the nature of electronic evidence and readers will learn of the challenges involved in upholding the necessary standards and maintaining the integrity of information. Challenges particularly occur when European Union member states collaborate and evidence is exchanged, as may be the case when solving a cybercrime. One such challenge is that the variety of possible evidences is so wide that potentially anything may become the evidence of a crime. Moreover, the introduction and the extensive use of information and communications technology (ICT) has generated new forms of crimes or new ways of perpetrating them, as well as a new type of evidence. Contributing authors examine the legal framework in place in various EU member states when dealing with electronic evidence, with prominence given to data protection and privacy issues. Readers may learn about the state of the art tools and standards utilized for treating and exchanging evidence, and existing platforms and environments run by different Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) at local and central level. Readers will also discover the operational point of view of LEAs when dealing with electronic evidence, and their requirements and expectations for the future. Finally, readers may consider a proposal for realizing a unique legal framework for governing in a uniform and aligned way the treatment and cross border exchange of electronic evidence in Europe. The use, collection and exchange of electronic evidence in the European Union context and the rules, practises, operational guidelines, standards and tools utilized by LEAs, judges, Public prosecutors and other relevant stakeholders are all covered in this comprehensive work. It will appeal to researchers in both law and computer science, as well as those with an interest in privacy, digital forensics, electronic evidence, legal frameworks and law enforcement.
Download or read book Transnational Crime written by Valsamis Mitsilegas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a diverse set of perspectives on transnational crime. Providing a wide-ranging overview of the legal and policy issues that arise in connection with various forms of transnational crime, the authors outline the criminal justice responses adopted across different jurisdictions. Including contributions from high profile Chinese and European academics and practitioners across a variety of disciplines and methodological backgrounds, the authors address some of the hitherto underexplored issues related to transnational crime. These range from trafficking in cultural objects derived from illicit metal-detecting and metal-detecting tourism in China to the European approaches to criminalising the denial of historical truth. The central theme of the book is that useful lessons can be drawn from each other’s experiences, and that a cross-fertilisation of domestic approaches to transnational crime is essential to effective cooperation. This book will be of use to students and academics of comparative criminal justice and anyone interested in transnational crime.
