Abstract

After examining the contribution that international human rights law and EU law have made to the enhancement of participatory safeguards in criminal proceedings, this study provides a second comparative-law analysis. The purpose of the present discussion is to critically compare the models and common principles of a participatory understanding of criminal justice emerging from Strasbourg and Inter-American case-law, as well as from the developments that have taken place in EU law, in order to elaborate some requirements to solve the shortcomings that we observed in the national criminal justice systems under examination.

The English text acknowledges the right of any person charged with a criminal offence not just to be heard in court but also to have an overall fair hearing.

A linguistic comparison may be interesting in this respect. It is worth noting that both the Spanish and Portuguese versions of the European Convention follow the French official text, thus relating to the right to have one’s own lawsuit examined by an independent authority.

Concerning Italy, see among others Marzaduri (1996), p. 20; Nobili (1998), p. 181 ff. In Germany, criminal law scholarship tends to exclude the principle of legality sharing the same constitutional protection reserved to the nullum crimen sine lege principle pursuant to Article 103(III) Const. However, the strict link between the two principles is not disputed and the mandatory prosecution is even considered to be the downside of Gesetzlichkeitsprinzip, in that the latter aims at avoiding the legal limits of criminal law provisions being exceeded, whereas the former prevents them from being lowered and from remaining on paper. Cf. Hassemer (1992), p. 529. For some criticisms on the foundation of this distinction, see Erb (1999), p. 119. Furthermore, the principle of legality shares an essential feature of the nullum crimen sine lege principle, that is, the need to respect equality of arms. In this sense see Kühne (2015), p. 210.

As noted, the issue was not dealt with in Colozza v. Italy, whereas the Neumeister judgment made waiver conditional on specific safeguards. Cf. Chapter 8, C.II.

In Italy, as noted, the 1988 code enabled defendants tried in absentia to request to be relieved from the effects of the expiration of the time limit to appeal a default conviction. Yet the exercise of their right to evidence at second instance depended on the difficult proof that their absence in court had not been their own fault. Significantly, this situation remained unchanged after an important legislative reform, carried out by Law Decree 17/2005, converted in Law 60/2005. Cf. Chapter 2, F.II.1.
