Question referred

Do the provisions of Article 4(7)(a) of [Council] Framework Decision 2002/584 [of 13 June 2002] on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States 1 and of Article 18 TFEU permit an interpretation thereof whereby those provisions take into account the possibility of introducing into national law a mandatory ground for non-execution of a European arrest warrant by a court of the executing State, if the act concerned by the European warrant was committed in whole or in part in the territory of the executing State and that warrant has been issued in respect of a prosecuted person who is a citizen of the executing State?

Council Regulation (EU) 2017/1939 of 12 October 2017 implementing enhanced cooperation on the establishment of the European Public Prosecutor’s Office (‘the EPPO’) - Conflicts of competence - Compatibility of Croatian implementation of the Regulation - Prosecutor General of the Republic of Croatia's competence to decide on a conflict of competence for the purposes of Art. 25(6) of Regulation 2017/1939 - no judicial review of the decision according to national legislation - non-judicial authority and concept of ‘court or tribunal’ within the meaning of Art. 267 TFEU and Art. 42(2)(c) of Regulation 2017/1939

Interpretation of Art. 24 of Directive 2014/41/EU - Issuance of a European Investigation Order (EIO) for the purpose of hearing by videoconference of an accused person who is not detained in the executing State, with a view to ensuring that person’s presence and participation in the ongoing criminal trial in the issuing State - Necessity of withdrawal of a parallel European Arrest Warrant (EAW) - Relationship between EIO and EAW in cases of ensuring the participation of an accused person at trial - Assurance by defence that accused person will be present at trial

The case concerns the compatibility of national rules on the retroactive application of more lenient criminal laws (lex mitior) in VAT fraud cases with the obligations under Article 325 TFEU and the PIF Convention. The referring court asks whether a conspiracy to commit VAT fraud can already constitute a breach of the EU’s financial interests, and whether national rules preventing the interruption of limitation periods, based on constitutional principles like the prohibition of lex tertia, must be set aside to ensure effective enforcement of EU financial crime law, even when fundamental rights under the Charter and the ECHR are at stake.

The case concerns the interpretation of Article 15(1) of the ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC (as amended), in light of the Charter of Fundamental Rights and the new Regulation 2023/1543 on electronic evidence. Specifically, the questions relate to whether access by public authorities to log-in/log-out data (log files) for the purpose of identifying offenders constitutes a serious interference with fundamental rights, and under what conditions such access is justified.

The case concerns the interpretation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Directive (EU) 2016/680 (JI Directive) in the context of court proceedings concerning administrative offences (Ordnungswidrigkeiten). The referring court seeks clarification on which legal framework governs claims for non-material damages caused by violations of the right of access to personal data, specifically in cases where a court, in the course of a fine proceeding, fails to provide timely or complete information about the processing of personal data. The core issue is whether the GDPR or the JI Directive applies, and whether mere uncertainty caused by a lack of access already constitutes immaterial damage triggering compensation.

Art. 4(3) TEU – Obligation to ensure effective collection of the European Union’s own resources – Common system of value added tax (VAT) – Directive 2006/112/EC – Articles 2 and 273 – Principle of tax neutrality – National legislation permitting the simplified resolution of tax disputes

Question: Do Art. 4(3) TEU and Arts. 250(1) and 273 of Directive 2006/112 preclude a simplified resolution mechanism such as that at issue in the main proceedings, in the light of, on the one hand, the obligation to ensure the collection of all the VAT, and, on the other hand, the principle of neutrality, in particular since simplified resolution is excluded for tax disputes concerning the VAT levied on imports?
