Abstract

In the present study we have analysed the right to interpretation and translation in criminal proceedings in accordance with the European Union and national regulations in the matter. From this point of view, we took into consideration EU Directives and the Romanian legal framework in criminal procedural matters (norms provided by the Criminal Procedure Code in force and provisions of the new Criminal Procedure Code). We are going to approach the present topic from a legislative perspective and also in relation to special literature in the matter and jurisprudence solutions. We are going to separately analyse the right to interpretation and the right to translation in criminal proceedings.
