Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 November 2012 on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs (1), and in particular Article 52(2) thereof,

Questions referred







1.


Does the term ‘proceedings in relation to a criminal offence that may result in confiscation of property, including confiscation without a conviction’ within the meaning of Article 2(3) of Regulation 2018/1805 (1)also include criminal proceedings concluded with an acquittal?










2.


Does the term ‘proceedings in relation to a criminal offence that may result in confiscation of property, including confiscation without a conviction’ within the meaning of Article 2(3) of Regulation 2018/1805 also include criminal proceedings concluded with a judgment of acquittal that includes an order to confiscate property as undue proceeds derived from another criminal offence, which is not the criminal offence of which the defendants were acquitted, and in whose commission the defendants were not involved, but rather persons against whom no indictment was brought?










3.


Is it contrary to Regulation 2018/1805, Article 1(2) thereof, and Article 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights, to recognise a confiscation order issued in criminal proceedings in which an affected person, within the meaning of Article 2(10) of the regulation:






—


was not summoned to participate in all stages of the criminal proceedings;










—


was not advised of his or her right to a lawyer throughout the proceedings;










—


did not receive the full text of the judgment containing the confiscation order in a language he or she understood, but only excerpts from that judgment, and did not appeal against the judgment thus served.
