Hello,
It's a sobering thought (or should be) that in today's EU, a decision by any one of the EU member states' courts against any individual, regardless of where they are currently in the EU, is expected to be acted upon without any further due process etc. So that if an Italian kangarou court decides you're due 10 years' nick, and you're found in UK, the UK are obliged to send you over to Italy without any extradition process or whatever required beforehand (have I got that right?).
Yes you got it right ..
That's the EAW (European Arrest Warrant)
SCADPlus: European arrest warrant
Regards.
