New Visiting Researcher at iCourts - Elise Filius
Elise Filius is a PhD candidate at the University of Leiden (Europa Institute and the Department of Criminal Law & Criminology). She graduated from the University of Tilburg and holds an LL.M. in Criminal Law. Prior to her PhD, she worked for four years as a lecturer at the University of Tilburg where she taught several courses on European Criminal Law, Global Law and Dutch Criminal Law.
Her research focusses on the question how the Dutch judiciary deals with politically sensitive cases concerning the Dublin Regulation III and the Framework Decision on the European Arrest Warrant, and, second to that, how this (potentially) impacts on the way these EU-instruments function (such as, for instance, with effects that go beyond the respective fields of asylum and criminal law).
Elise will be a Visiting Researcher at iCourts from 8 April – 16 May.
