This paper aims to bring to attention certain optional reasons for refusing the execution of a European arrest warrant, situations in which the courts can defeat the principle of mutual recognition and trust between the judicial authorities of the European Union states, which represents the "cornerstone" of judicial cooperation in criminal matters. The judicial enforcement authorities cannot refuse to execute a European arrest warrant except for reasons resulting from the Council Framework Decision No. 2002/584/JAI of 13 June 2002, however, in practice, the optional reasons for non-execution often raised problems, the wording of article 4 and article 4a leaving a margin in the judgment of the courts.

Abstract The cross-border character of the designer drugs crimes forced the UE countries to cooperate in criminal prosecution. At first sight, in European Union law, there are proper instruments to enforce such cooperation. The Framework Decision on the European Arrest Warrant introduces the model of cross-border prosecution and abandons the requirement of double criminality in case of the group of the 32 crimes, listed in the Article 2 (2) of the FD EAW. The question is whether such a simple variant of EAW (without checking double criminality) may be enforced in designer drug cases. The work presents an argumentation that the normative meaning of Article 2 (2) of the FD EAW has to be established under European and international law. As long as a particular new drug is not internationally recognized as 'psychotropic substance' or 'narcotic drug', its trafficking cannot be treated as one of the 32 crimes, mentioned above.

Europejski Nakaz Aresztowania (ENA) został wprowadzony w Polsce w 2004 roku, z chwilą przystąpienia naszego kraju do Unii Europejskiej. Podstawowym zadaniem ENA było uproszczenie i usprawnienie systemu przekazywania osób dzięki pominięciu złożonych procedur ekstradycyjnych pomiędzy państwami należącymi do Unii Europejskiej. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie różnic w terminologii polskiej dotyczących listy 32 przestępstw objętych ENA, zaprezentowanie listy 32 kategorii przestępstw objętych ENA dla pary językowej: polski i włoski oraz pojawiających się trudności terminologicznych w przypadku tłumaczenia ENA. W artykule przedstawiono także częstotliwość stosowania ENA przez polskie sądy w latach 2006–2008, jak również zaprezentowano trudności związane z inkorporowaniem przepisów Decyzji Ramowej z 2002 roku dotyczących ENA we Włoszech. ; The European Arrest Warrant (EAW, or more rarely, EUAW) was introduced in Poland n 2004, at the moment of our country accession to the European Union. Simplification and rationalization of the system of persons transfer throughout the states of the European Union, thanks the elimination of complex extradition procedures, were the basic tasks of EAW. The aim of the paper is to show differences at Polish terminology concerning the list of 32 crimes covered by EAW, to present the list of 32 crime categories covered by EAW for the languages pair: Polish and Italian, and to present terminological problems in case of EAW translation. Frequency of EAW application by Polish courts between the years 2006–2008, as well as problems connected with incorporation of laws of Framework decision from 2002 concerning EAW in Italy were also presented in the paper.

The author studies a legal measure, which was introduced by a type of European Union law known as Framework Decision, adopted in June 2002 by the European Union Council of Ministers. Lithuania has implemented the Framework Decision on the European Arrest Warrant by making modifications to the national Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure. It should be noted, that the European Arrest Warrant is the first European instrument, implementing the principle of mutual recognition. The master's thesis deals with the concept and system of the European Arrest Warrant, it's historical development, examines mandatory and discretionary grounds for non execution of the European Arrest Warrant, legal procedure, requirements of the form and content of the European Arrest Warrant. The author also focuses on some obstacles and problems found at national level during implementation of the Framework Decision. Furthermore, the author analyzes the statistical rates of issuing European Arrest Warrant and the surrendered persons to Lithuania. Aditionally, the master's thesis is illustrated by practical application of the European Arrest Warrant. Finally, the author gives summarized conclusions and makes particular suggestions for improving existing legal norms, which regulate the European Arrest Warrant.
