This procedure concerns a legal opinion from the Court of Justice regarding a data-sharing agreement between the EU and the USA. The goal is to ensure that the transfer of personal information for preventing and prosecuting crimes complies with EU treaties and fundamental rights.

This affects law enforcement agencies in both the EU and US, as well as EU citizens whose personal data may be shared across borders for criminal investigations.
