Zywicki v Poland: ECHR 20 Jan 2009

The applicant alleged, in particular, that his pre-trial detention had exceeded a ‘reasonable time’ within the meaning of Article 5 ss 3 of the Convention; that the domestic courts had failed to examine ‘speedily’ one of his appeals against the extension of the detention and one of his requests for release; that his detention had been unlawful; and that the length of criminal proceedings in his case had been excessive.
