Title:
Hearing of the child in international child abduction cases: a comparative analysis of practices in Poland and Lithuania
Summary / Abstract:

ENParental child abductions, where a parent unlawfully takes or retains a child in another country, are a global negative phenomenon. It is also common in Europe and is highly relevant to CEE countries. In Europe, the legal framework for such type of cases is provided by the Brussels IIb Regulation and the 1980 Hague Child Abduction Convention. This chapter discusses cross-border child abductions from a child rights perspective. In particular, it sketches the overall situation of international parental child abduction cases in Poland and Lithuania, and focuses on the duty of hearing the child, in this way exploring the evolving role of the child’s perspective in judicial considerations.
