The European Judicial Network (EJN) is a network of contact points within the EU designed to facilitate judicial cooperation across borders.[1] With a focus on serious crime (such as organized crime, corruption, drug smuggling & terrorism), it helps form and maintain contacts between agencies in member states.[2] The Network was created by Joint Action 98/428 in 1998,[3] to fulfil recommendation no. 21 of the Action Plan to Combat Organised Crime adopted by the Council of the European Union on 28 April 1997.[4]
A priority of the EJN is the dissemination of information to its citizens, judges and legal practitioners, primarily through its internet site: http://www.ejnforum.eu The EJN’s main functions are: Facilitating judicial cooperation among the Member States; travelling to meet the contact points of other State Members, as necessary; providing the local judicial authorities of their country with the necessary legal and practical information; providing the local judicial authorities of other member states the necessary legal and practical information; improving the coordination of the judicial cases.
A member state’s Contact Point can identify relevant other Contact Points via the European Justice Atlas.[2]
