Andrei Svištš dissects the legal anatomy of substantial criminal trials in a TV interview with ETV+

RASK’s Co-Head of Criminal Proceedings Andrei Svištš, who is also one of the defenders in the Port of Tallinn criminal case, was a guest on the ETV+ morning programme yesterday to explain the legal anatomy of complex and protracted trials.

What is the meaning of the “statute of limitations” in the process of financial crime proceedings and why is the application of a statute of limitations in the judicial system necessary at all? In practice, what are the reasons why some important cases reach the statute of limitations and what does such a final decision mean for the accused?

Andrei Svištš is one of the most acclaimed new-generation criminal law experts in Estonia, specialising in the field of white-collar crime. Andrei mainly represents clients in litigation and often acts as an adviser in large-scale and complex criminal cases, many of which have unfolded with significant attention and pressure from the media.
