Access to bank data in criminal investigations
There is a clear opposition between the clear regulation of procedures of cooperation in criminal matters as far as bank data are concerned, and the national procedures of access to the same data.
In national procedures, this absence of clear regulation puts the respects of the right to privacy at risk, particularly because the interference in this rights in not "in accordance with the law". The purpose of this PhD is to study how the access to bank data should be regulated in criminal procedure.
A comparative analysis of Luxembourg, France, and the federal level of the US will be conducted.
