Zusammenfassung:The EU's projected judicial organ, Eurojust, is evaluated. Eurojust will contribute to coordination of legal and criminal matters among member states ; it will replace the Corpus juris project, a simpler model of cooperation. Inadequacies of the EU's current system of legal and police cooperation are surveyed : a complex institutional structure, insufficient protection of fundamental rights, and ineffective opposition to major crime ; introducing Eurojust into this framework would not fix it. Corpus juris provides a European prosecutor to coordinate the initial phase of a transnational investigation, common definitions of several infractions, unified trial procedures, and a balance between efficiency and civil rights. The merits of Corpus juris are weighed against the disadvantages and rationalizations of Eurojust.
