The European arrest warrant, based on the surrender procedure, replaced traditional extradition procedure between Member States of the European Union. First time we met the European arrest warrant is unsuccessful project Corpus Juris, but the establishment of the area of freedom, security and justice, the conclusions of the European Council meeting in Tampere and the establishment of the mutual recognition of judicial decisions in criminal matters, led to the adoption of the Council framework decision 2002/584/JHA of 13 June 2002 on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States. The European arrest warrant is the first concrete measure in the field of EU Criminal Law implementing the principle of mutual recognition which the European Council referred to as the cornerstone of judicial co-operation in the EU. The European arrest warrant has been implemented into the legal order of the Slovak Republic twice – firstly in 2004 and secondly in 2010. Former implementation was performed by the Act of the National Council of the Slovak Republic of 24 June 2004 No. 403/2004 Coll. on the European arrest warrant. In 2010 the Slovak Republic adopted new legislation for purposes of the EAW – Act of the National Council of the Slovak Republic of 9 March 2010 No. 154/2010 Coll. on the European arrest warrant.
