CJEU - C 36/20 PPU, V.L. v Spain, 25 June 2020
Keywords:
Effective access to procedures, Detention
The CJEU found that the judge assigned to rule upon the applicant’s detention should have transmitted his request for international protection to the competent authority so it could be registered, and the applicant could enjoy his rights provided by Directive 2013/33. It also found that he should not have been detained since he was protected by his applicant for international protection’s status under Directives 2013/33 and 2013/32.
