The Council has adopted and published its decision to conclude the extradition and mutual legal assistance agreements between the USA and the EU.
That means that both agreements are nearer to entering into force which should be on the first day following the third month after the date on which the Contracting Parties have exchanged instruments indicating that they have completed their internal procedures for this purpose.Both agreements were signed by the Council in 2003 so it's taken a while.
You can find the text of the agreement on extradition here and that of the mutual legal assistance agreement here.
Usually I love to read blogs and the comments it gets from various EXPERTs (I have noticed that many of them do not write relevant comments, but I respect their interest in different topics and efforts they put in to contribute to make blogs so popular). Since, I have been associated with a law firm so my main focus of interest is only restricted to law and legal issues. Recently, I was reading an article on a lawyer locator service, and I read a comment from a contributor about how bad was his experience with an accident for which he wanted to claim.. The funny part is he explained more than 100 words on the accident and the lawyer experience ended in a one lined saying.. he was good to get him justice. I could understand that he wanted to share the trauma of his accident, but probably that was not the right blog for him.
