Article 4a of Council Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA of 13 June 2002 on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between Member States, as amended by Council Framework Decision 2009/299/JHA of 26 February 2009, read in the light of Article 6 TEU and Article 47 and Article 48(2) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union,
must be interpreted as meaning that it does not preclude national legislation that does not allow the executing judicial authority to refuse to surrender the person concerned, pursuant to a European arrest warrant issued for the purpose of executing a custodial sentence imposed on that person in the issuing State, if that person did not appear in person at the trial resulting in the decision and was not represented by a lawyer appointed by him or her or by a lawyer appointed by the court, and if the conditions laid down in Article 4a(1)(d) are fulfilled.
