Action brought on 15 October 2024 – European Commission v Czech Republic


(Case C-681/24)

(C/2024/7158)
Language of the case: Czech

Parties


Applicant: European Commission (represented by: M. Wasmeier and P. Ondrůšek, acting as Agents)

Defendant: Czech Republic

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


find that, whereas the legislation of the Czech Republic permits the questioning of detained suspects without the presence of their lawyer in situations where the conditions of Article 3(6) of Directive 2013/48/EU (1) are not met, the Czech Republic has incorrectly transposed Article 3(6) in conjunction with Article 3(3) of that directive;










—


order the Czech Republic to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

Article 3(3)(b) of Directive 2013/48/EU requires that suspects or accused persons being questioned are to have the right for ‘
            their lawyer to be present and participate effectively when questioned
            ’. Article 3(6) of the directive makes it possible to derogate from the right to have a lawyer present during the questioning of a detainee only ‘
            in exceptional circumstances
            ’ and exclusively ‘
            to the extent justified in the light of the particular circumstances of the case
            ’, that being ‘
            an urgent need to avert serious adverse consequences for the life, liberty or physical integrity of a person
            ’ or where ‘
            immediate action … is imperative to prevent substantial jeopardy to criminal proceedings
            ’.
The Commission is of the view that since the legislation of the Czech Republic (in particular Paragraph 76(6) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (2)) permits the police to question detained suspects without the presence of their lawyer where the lawyer is not accessible within a certain period, the Czech Republic has incorrectly transposed Article 3(6) of Directive 2014/48/EU in conjunction with Article 3(3) thereof.


(1)  Directive 2013/48/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2013 on the right of access to a lawyer in criminal proceedings and in European arrest warrant proceedings, and on the right to have a third party informed upon deprivation of liberty and to communicate with third persons and with consular authorities while deprived of liberty (OJ 2013 L 294, p. 1).

(2)  Zákon č. 141/1961 Sb., o trestním řízení soudním (trestní řád) (Law No 141/1961 on Criminal Procedure (Code of Criminal Procedure)), as amended.

(1)


Must Article 11(7) of Directive 2009/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2009 on airport charges (1) be interpreted as meaning that the obligation arising therefrom for the independent supervisory authority to consult the parties concerned when undertaking an investigation into the justification for the modification of the system or the level of airport charges as set out in Article 6 of the directive does not apply to a case where that authority applies the mandatory procedure under national law as referred to in Article 6(5)(a) of the directive, under which procedure airport charges, or their maximum level, are determined or approved by the independent supervisory authority, having regard to the requirement of transparency of the national procedure under the second sentence of Article 6(5) of the directive?










(2)


Is the provision of national law under which the airport managing body, when introducing modifications to the system or the level of airport charges, must consult only the air carriers that regularly use the airport in question or the entities representing them, including in particular the committee of air carriers operating at the airport in question or associations of air carriers, and not airport users within the meaning of Article 2(3) of the directive, that is to say, any natural or legal persons responsible for the carriage of passengers, mail and/or freight by air to or from the airport concerned, compatible with Article 6(2) of the directive, read in conjunction with Article 2(3) thereof?
