'In the Nederlands Dagblad of last Saturday Professor Ralphael Israeli is also quoted who predicts a "Third Islamic Invasion of Europe" by means of "penetration, propaganda, conversion and demographic changes". In his eyes the Europeans are even committing "demographic suicide" with the advancing Islam. The first Islamic invasion was stopped at Poitiers in the year 732 after the conquest of Spain, Portugal and the south of France and the second invasion attempt by the Ottoman Turks as stopped before the gates of Vienna where they were, fortunately, beaten in 1683. According to Prof. Israeli the third invasion attempt that is now going on in Europe has a much bigger change of success.

(The film Fitna, placed on www.liveleak.com on 27 March 2008)

The film starts with a black image with the text: "Warning: this film contains very shocking material". Then the sound of a match being lighted can be heard and a book with oriental looking symbols is opened up that looks like the Quran. On the first page a cartoon can be seen of Mohammed with a bomb in his turban. The sound of a burning fuse can be heard. A clock appears that starts counting down from 15:00.

A page of the book is turned over. Two open pages can be seen. On the page on the right the following text appears: "Quran, Surah 8, verse 60". Then on the page on the left appears: "Surah 8. Verse 60: Prepare for them whatever force and cavalry ye are able of gathering, to strike terror, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies, of Allah and your enemies". A voice can also be heard which (most likely) sings this text in the Arabic language. On the page on the right, next to the text, footage of the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York (09/11/2001) are shown as well as of the attacks by Muslim extremists in Madrid and London with footage of the victims. This footage is alternated with footage of apparent imams who say: "What makes Allah happy? Allah is happy if non-Muslims are being killed" and "Destroy the unbelievers and polytheists, your (Allah's) enemies and the enemies of the religion. Allah, count them and kill them up to the very last of them. And do not spare a single one".

The page is turned. Now the page on the right states: "Quran, Surah 4, verse 56" and on the page on the left: "Surah 4, verse 56: Those who reject our signs, we shall soon cast into the fire: as often as their skins are roasted through, we shall change them for fresh skins, that they may taste the penalty: for Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise". Then footage follows of a man who yells: "If Allah permits us, oh nation of Mohammed, even the stone will say Oh Muslim. A Jew is hiding behind me, come and cut off his head. And we shall cut off his head! By Allah, we shall cut it off! Oh Jews! Allah Akbar! (Allah is Great!). Jihad for the sake of Allah! Jihad for the sake of Allah! Victory to Allah! Allah Akbar! (Allah is Great!)".

Then footage is shown of a young girl wearing a headscarf who is asked by a person off-screen who the Jews are. The little girl answers: "They are apes and pigs". The voice says: "Are they apes and pigs? Says who?" The little girl says: "Allah". The voice asks: "Where did he say this?" The little girl answers: "In the Quran". The following footage shows a mass of people who are dragging corpses behind them. The following footage again shows images of the attacks in London showing, among other things, an exploded red double-decker bus. Then footage follows of apparently an imam who calls outs: "The Jews are Jews. They are the ones who must be butchered and killed". These stills are intertwined with stills of Muslims (as follows from the headscarves and facial covering worn by one of the female persons) who show texts on signs: "Be prepared for the real Holocaust" and "God bless Hitler". Then footage of a group of people in uniform who are lined up follows, apparently fighters who are standing with extended right arm (apparently bringing the Hitler salute).

A page is turned. On the new page the following text appears: "Quran, Surah 47, verse 4" and then: "Surah 47, verse 4: Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers in fight, smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly on them". A voice can also be heard which (probably) presents this text in the Arabic language. Then a newspaper article is shown of the murder of Theo van Gogh. A fragment of an interview with Theo van Gogh can be heard where he says, among other things: "I do not think that bullet will come for me!". A picture of a male person appears who looks like Mohammed B. who has been convicted of the murder of Theo van Gogh. On screen appears: Mohammed B. Immediately thereafter an audio fragment in which the voice of Mohammed B. can be heard who says: "If I had the opportunity, if I would be free, and I had the opportunity to do it again, what I did on 2 November, I would have done exactly the same". Footage appears of people who yell: "Learn from Theo van Gogh. Learn from the examples you can see! Because you pay with your blood!" and also footage of people with bloody knives. A newspaper article is shown with the header: "Hirsi Ali and Wilders into hiding. Death list. Targets in letter of Mohammed B.". A fragment can also be seen of, as can be seen on screen, a Saudi TV station, Iqra TV, where a person says: "Houses and young men must be sacrificed, throats must be cut and skulls must be crushed. This is the road to victory". Stills are shown of people wearing balaclavas and holding firearms. In between them they hold a man who is apparently their prisoner. The person wearing a balaclava in the middle reads a statement out loud. Then the masked men move to cut off the head of the prisoner. The beheading itself can (barely) not be seen. Yet the audio of the fragment remains audible. Sounds can be heard that apparently point to the beheading. After a few seconds the footage returns and one of the masked men can be seen holding the cut-off head of the prisoner up.

A page is turned again. On the new page can be read: "Quran, Surah 4, verse 89" and then: "Surah 4, verse 89: They but wish that ye should reject faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing as they, so take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah. But if they turn renegades, seize them and kill them wherever ye find them, and take no friends or helpers from their ranks". A voice can also be heard which (probably) presents the text in the Arabic language. The text is followed by footage of Arabic looking people who state the following: "The Islam is a sacred religion. The best religion there is. If somebody converts to Christianity he deserves the death penalty". Another person says: "The Islam is superior compared to the Jews, the Christians, the Buddhists and the Hindus. The only law recognised by Allah is the Islam. And he who pursues anything other but the Islam shall never be accepted". The following newspaper headlines appear on screen: "Former Muslim Jami molested", "Islamic witch hunt again threatens", "Death to Rushdie" and "Letter on body Theo van Gogh disclosed. Hirsi Ali also receiving death threats".

The page is turned. It says: "Quran, Surah 8, verse 39" and then: "Surah 8, verse 39: Fight them until there is no dissension, and the religion is entirely Allah's". Moreover, a voice can be heard which (probably) presents this text in the Arabic language. An Ayatollah appears who says: "The Islam is a religion that wants to control the world. It did so before and shall eventually do so again". Followed by President Ahmadinejad who says: "The message of the Revolution is global, and is not restricted to a specific place or time. Have no doubt... Allah willing, Islam will conquer what? It will conquer all the mountain tops of the world".

Then a number of apparently Arabic men appears on screen that make the following statements:

"We have ruled the world before. And Allah willing the day shall come that we will again rule the whole world. The day shall come that we will rule over America! The day shall come that we will rule over Great Britain and the whole world!".

"Allah ordered us to spread this religion all over the world".

"Thou shall take over the United States! Thou shall take over the United Kingdom! Thou shall take over Europe! Thou shall conquer them all. Thou shall be victorious! Thou shall take over Egypt. We have faith in Allah!".

Then apparently Arabic people with signs are shown. The following texts can be read: "Islam will dominate the world" and "Freedom go to hell".

Then the following text appears: "The Netherlands is under the spell of the Islam". Stills are shown of mosques that are most likely situated in the Netherlands. A voice can also be heard which says: "These mosques are all part of the Dutch government system". Footage is shown of a woman dressed in a burka combined with the newspaper header "Government: no burka prohibition" as also with satellite dishes and apartment buildings. Graphs are shown of the increase of the number of Muslims in the Netherlands in the course of the years. In the graphs the years 1909, 1960, 1990 and 2004 are shown with, respectively, the following numbers: 54, 1399, 458,000 and 944,000. Next to these graphs the number of Muslims in Europe in 2007 appears. The graph increases up to 54,000,000 and continues beyond the top of the screen. In the background stills can be seen of women with headscarves, satellite dishes and Dutch police officers in uniform taking off their shoes when they apparently enter a mosque. An apparent Muslim says: "If my sister or my mother has sex with another person I will also kill them". The interviewer asks: "Then you commit blood vengeance!" The man answers: "Absolutely". Another apparent Muslim says: "For example, in the Netherlands you can be adulterous or gay. But I do not wish to be part of that because the Islam considers that to be a crime". A still appears of a postcard with the text: "Greetings from the Netherlands" where you can only see mosques. Then a preach can be heard, on screen the following appears: "Said in Dutch mosques": "They must renounce political parties and worldly bodies of thought like liberalism, democracy, socialism and everything that smells of it and originates from the human brain" and (according to the text on screen pronounced in the El Tawheed mosque): "If a married man, by the grace of Allah, commits adultery, or a married woman commits adultery, she will be stoned".

On screen the following question is shown: "The Netherlands in the future!?". Stills are shown of apparently homosexual men (on screen it reads: "Gays") who are hanged, children smothered in blood (on screen it reads: "Children"), stills of a woman with a bloody knife in her hand with a child smothered in blood on her lap, a woman (on screen it reads: "Women") with a naked lower torso tied down to a bed and then a lot of blood (she is apparently being circumcised), a chopped off head of apparently a Muslim woman (she wears a headscarf), a woman dressed in a burka at a noose and a veiled woman who is shot through her head. These scenes are concluded with a large number of newspaper headlines. An enumeration of the headlines is provided below:

Islamists seek control, politically driven Muslims gain influence in Europe
Spanish Court examines ties. Laakkwartier with Madrid in terror web
Sudanese demand execution of British 'teddy bear lady'
Three people suspected of planning attack
Hell will break loose. "What you need is a heavy bomb attack". "We do not agree with the freedom of speech, because we renounce democracy", "Our alternative is the Islam"
Explosive increase blood vengeance in Amsterdam
School closes on Muslim holidays
AIVD investigation: Jihad lessons at primary school
Minister reports Rotterdam abuse cases. Free trip to Mecca via Islam school
Ankara wants Turkish in classroom here
Donner eases the rules. Foreign imams can enter country more quickly
Murderer Theo van Gogh predicts terrorist acts. Mohammed B.: "My followers are ready"
Van Gogh murdered after Fatwa announcement
Almost half of the young Moroccans anti-Western
Mosques under spell of radical Muslim group
Suicide commandos in the Netherlands
Hamas meets in Rotterdam
Alexander must swim for hours. Moroccans throw gay into the water
Imams do not like gays
'Imam legitimises violence against gays'
'Throw gays of high buildings'
Mosque: "Turn the Netherlands into a Muslim state"
Girls still being circumcised
'Muslims prevent doctors from providing care to women'
Halal fund: sliced meat for Muslims. New on Amsterdam Stock Exchange
Al Qaeda issues death sentence. Jihad against Wilders
'Quran game licence' Arabic Specialist Hans Jansen: "You already offend the Islam by not becoming a Muslim"

Then a hand can be seen that takes up a page of the Quran. The screen then turns black and the sound of paper being torn can be heard. On screen the text appears: "The sound you just heard was a page from the telephone directory. Because it is not up to me but up to the Muslims themselves to tear the vindictive verses from the Quran. Muslims want you to give room to the Islam, but the Islam does not offer room to you.

The government wants you to respect the Islam, yet the Islam has no respect at all for you. The Islam wants to control, subdue and is out for the destruction of our Western civilisation. In 1945 Nazism was beaten in Europe. In 1989 communism was beaten in Europe. Now the Islamic ideology must be beaten. Stop the Islamisation. Defend our freedom".

The film again concludes with the image of the cartoon of Mohammed with the turban. It can be seen that the fuse in his turban is almost near the end. A ticking clock can be heard. The clock appears on screen and counts down from 00:03 to zero. A flash of lightning can be seen and a bolt of lightning can be heard. Then the Quran is closed, the word "Fitna" is shown which flows into the word "Fin" and then the credits of the film are shown.

(The film Fitna, placed on www.liveleak.com on 27 March 2008)

The film starts with a black image with the text: "Warning: this film contains very shocking material". Then the sound of a match being lighted can be heard and a book with oriental looking symbols is opened up that looks like the Quran. On the first page a cartoon can be seen of Mohammed with a bomb in his turban. The sound of a burning fuse can be heard. A clock appears that starts counting down from 15:00.

A page of the book is turned over. Two open pages can be seen. On the page on the right the following text appears: "Quran, Surah 8, verse 60". Then on the page on the left appears: "Surah 8. Verse 60: Prepare for them whatever force and cavalry ye are able of gathering, to strike terror, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies, of Allah and your enemies". A voice can also be heard which (most likely) sings this text in the Arabic language. On the page on the right, next to the text, footage of the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York (09/11/2001) are shown as well as of the attacks by Muslim extremists in Madrid and London with footage of the victims. This footage is alternated with footage of apparent imams who say: "What makes Allah happy? Allah is happy if non-Muslims are being killed" and "Destroy the unbelievers and polytheists, your (Allah's) enemies and the enemies of the religion. Allah, count them and kill them up to the very last of them. And do not spare a single one".

The page is turned. Now the page on the right states: "Quran, Surah 4, verse 56" and on the page on the left: "Surah 4, verse 56: Those who reject our signs, we shall soon cast into the fire: as often as their skins are roasted through, we shall change them for fresh skins, that they may taste the penalty: for Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise". Then footage follows of a man who yells: "If Allah permits us, oh nation of Mohammed, even the stone will say Oh Muslim. A Jew is hiding behind me, come and cut off his head. And we shall cut off his head! By Allah, we shall cut it off! Oh Jews! Allah Akbar! (Allah is Great!). Jihad for the sake of Allah! Jihad for the sake of Allah! Victory to Allah! Allah Akbar! (Allah is Great!)".
Then footage is shown of a young girl wearing a headscarf who is asked by a person off-screen who the Jews are. The little girl answers: "They are apes and pigs". The voice says: "Are they apes and pigs? Says who?" The little girl says: "Allah". The voice asks: "Where did he say this?" The little girl answers: "In the Quran". The following footage shows a mass of people who are dragging corpses behind them. The following footage again shows images of the attacks in London showing, among other things, an exploded red double-decker bus. Then footage follows of apparently an imam who calls outs: "The Jews are Jews. They are the ones who must be butchered and killed". These stills are intertwined with stills of Muslims (as follows from the headscarves and facial covering worn by one of the female persons) who show texts on signs: "Be prepared for the real Holocaust" and "God bless Hitler". Then footage of a group of people in uniform who are lined up follows, apparently fighters who are standing with extended right arm (apparently bringing the Hitler salute).

A page is turned. On the new page the following text appears: "Quran, Surah 47, verse 4" and then: "Surah 47, verse 4: Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers in fight, smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly on them". A voice can also be heard which (probably) presents this text in the Arabic language. Then a newspaper article is shown of the murder of Theo van Gogh. A fragment of an interview with Theo van Gogh can be heard where he says, among other things: "I do not think that bullet will come for me!". A picture of a male person appears who looks like Mohammed B. who has been convicted of the murder of Theo van Gogh. On screen appears: Mohammed B. Immediately thereafter an audio fragment in which the voice of Mohammed B. can be heard who says: "If I had the opportunity, if I would be free, and I had the opportunity to do it again, what I did on 2 November, I would have done exactly the same". Footage appears of people who yell: "Learn from Theo van Gogh. Learn from the examples you can see! Because you pay with your blood!" and also footage of people with bloody knives. A newspaper article is shown with the header: "Hirsi Ali and Wilders into hiding. Death list. Targets in letter of Mohammed B." A fragment can also be seen of, as can be seen on screen, a Saudi TV station, Iqra TV, where a person says: "Houses and young men must be sacrificed, throats must be cut and skulls must be crushed. This is the road to victory". Stills are shown of people wearing balaclavas and holding firearms. In between them they hold a man who is apparently their prisoner. The person wearing a balaclava in the middle reads a statement out loud. Then the masked men move to cut off the head of the prisoner. The beheading itself can (barely) not be seen. Yet the audio of the fragment remains audible. Sounds can be heard that apparently point to the beheading. After a few seconds the footage returns and one of the masked men can be seen holding the cut-off head of the prisoner up.

A page is turned again. On the new page can be read: "Quran, Surah 4, verse 89" and then: "Surah 4, verse 89: They but wish that ye should reject faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing as they, so take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah. But if they turn renegades, seize them and kill them wherever ye find them, and take no friends or helpers from their ranks". A voice can also be heard which (probably) presents the text in the Arabic language. The text is followed by footage of Arabic looking people who state the following: "The Islam is a sacred religion. The best religion there is. If somebody converts to Christianity he deserves the death penalty". Another person says: "The Islam is superior compared to the Jews, the Christians, the Buddhists and the Hindus. The only law recognised by Allah is the Islam. And he who pursues anything other but the Islam shall never be accepted". The following newspaper headlines appear on screen: "Former Muslim Jami molested", "Islamic witch hunt again threatens", "Death to Rushdie" and "Letter on body Theo van Gogh disclosed. Hirsi Ali also receiving death threats".

The page is turned. It says: "Quran, Surah 8, verse 39" and then: "Surah 8, verse 39: Fight them until there is no dissension, and the religion is entirely Allah's". Moreover, a voice can be heard which (probably) presents this text in the Arabic language. An Ayatollah appears who says: "The Islam is a religion that wants to control the world. It did so before and shall eventually do so again". Followed by President Ahmadinejad who says: "The message of the Revolution is global, and is not restricted to a specific place or time. Have no doubt... Allah willing, Islam will conquer what? It will conquer all the mountain tops of the world".

Then a number of apparently Arabic men appears on screen that make the following statements:

"We have ruled the world before. And Allah willing the day shall come that we will again rule the whole world. The day shall come that we will rule over America! The day shall come that we will rule over Great Britain and the whole world!".

"Allah ordered us to spread this religion all over the world".
"Thou shall take over the United States! Thou shall take over the United Kingdom! Thou shall take over Europe! Thou shall conquer them all. Thou shall be victorious! Thou shall take over Egypt. We have faith in Allah!".

Then apparently Arabic people with signs are shown. The following texts can be read: "Islam will dominate the world" and "Freedom go to hell".

Then the following text appears: "The Netherlands is under the spell of the Islam". Stills are shown of mosques that are most likely situated in the Netherlands. A voice can also be heard which says: "These mosques are all part of the Dutch government system". Footage is shown of a woman dressed in a burka combined with the newspaper header "Government: no burka prohibition" as also with satellite dishes and apartment buildings. Graphs are shown of the increase of the number of Muslims in the Netherlands in the course of the years. In the graphs the years 1909, 1960, 1990 and 2004 are shown with, respectively, the following numbers: 54, 1399, 458,000 an 944,000. Next to these graphs the number of Muslims in Europe in 2007 appears. The graph increases up to 54,000,000 and continues beyond the top of the screen. In the background stills can be seen of women with headscarves, satellite dishes and Dutch police officers in uniform taking off their shoes when they apparently enter a mosque. An apparent Muslim says: "If my sister or my mother has sex with another person I will also kill them". The interviewer asks: "Then you commit blood vengeance!" The man answers: "Absolutely". Another apparent Muslim says: "For example, in the Netherlands you can be adulterous or gay. But I do not wish to be part of that because the Islam considers that to be a crime". A still appears of a postcard with the text: "Greetings from the Netherlands" where you can only see mosques. Then a preach can be heard, on screen the following appears: "Said in Dutch mosques": "They must renounce political parties and worldly bodies of thought like liberalism, democracy, socialism and everything that smells of it and originates from the human brain" and (according to the text on screen pronounced in the El Tawheed mosque): "If a married man, by the grace of Allah, commits adultery, or a married woman commits adultery, she will be stoned".

On screen the following question is shown: "The Netherlands in the future!?". Stills are shown of apparently homosexual men (on screen it reads: "Gays") who are hanged, children smothered in blood (on screen it reads: "Children"), stills of a woman with a bloody knife in her hand with a child smothered in blood on her lap, a woman (on screen it reads: "Women") with a naked lower torso tied down to a bed and then a lot of blood (she is apparently being circumcised), a chopped off head of apparently a Muslim woman (she wears a headscarf), a woman dressed in a burka at a noose and a veiled woman who is shot through her head. These scenes are concluded with a large number of newspaper headlines. An enumeration of the headlines is provided below:

Islamists seek control, politically driven Muslims gain influence in Europe
Spanish Court examines ties. Laakkwartier with Madrid in terror web
Sudanese demand execution of British 'teddy bear lady'
Three people suspected of planning attack
Hell will break loose. "What you need is a heavy bomb attack". "We do not agree with the freedom of speech, because we renounce democracy", "Our alternative is the Islam"
Explosive increase blood vengeance in Amsterdam
School closes on Muslim holidays
AIVD investigation: Jihad lessons at primary school
Minister reports Rotterdam abuse cases. Free trip to Mecca via Islam school
Ankara wants Turkish in classroom here
Donner eases the rules. Foreign imams can enter country more quickly
Murderer Theo van Gogh predicts terrorist acts. Mohammed B.: "My followers are ready"
Van Gogh murdered after Fatwa announcement
Almost half of the young Moroccans anti-Western
Mosques under spell of radical Muslim group
Suicide commandos in the Netherlands
Hamas meets in Rotterdam
Alexander must swim for hours. Moroccans throw gay into the water
Imams do not like gays
'Imam legitimises violence against gays'
'Throw gays of high buildings'
Mosque: "Turn the Netherlands into a Muslim state"
Girls still being circumcised
'Muslims prevent doctors from providing care to women'
Halal fund: sliced meat for Muslims. New on Amsterdam Stock Exchange
Al Qaeda issues death sentence. Jihad against Wilders
'Quran game licence' Arabic Specialist Hans Jansen: "You already offend the Islam by not becoming a Muslim"

Then a hand can be seen that takes up a page of the Quran. The screen then turns black and the sound of paper being torn can be heard. On screen the text appears: "The sound you just heard was a page from the telephone directory. Because it is not up to me but up to the Muslims themselves to tear the vindictive verses from the Quran. Muslims want you to give room to the Islam, but the Islam does not offer room to you.

The government wants you to respect the Islam, yet the Islam has no respect at all for you. The Islam wants to control, subdue and is out for the destruction of our Western civilisation. In 1945 Nazism was beaten in Europe. In 1989 communism was beaten in Europe. Now the Islamic ideology must be beaten. Stop the Islamisation. Defend our freedom".

The film again concludes with the image of the cartoon of Mohammed with the turban. It can be seen that the fuse in his turban is almost near the end. A ticking clock can be heard. The clock appears on screen and counts down from 00:03 to zero. A flash of lightning can be seen and a bolt of lightning can be heard. Then the Quran is closed, the word "Fitna" is shown which flows into the word "Fin" and then the credits of the film are shown.

Explanatory notes to the procedure

1. Presence at session
If you were younger than age 18 years at the time of the act with which you are charged you are required to appear at the session. In all other cases you are not required to appear. If the judge deems it absolutely necessary that you be present at the session, he can require you to appear. If you do not appear, the court ultimately can have the police bring you to court under duress. A lawyer can represent you at the court hearing. Oral authorisation is sufficient for this. You can also be represented at sessions of the sub-district court [kantonrechter] and/or the police court for economic offences [economische politierechter] by someone who is not a lawyer, unless you have been charged with a criminal offence. That person must hold a special written power of attorney. If your representative or authorised lawyer does appear at the session and you do not, you will be deemed to have appeared in person for the further handling of the matter.
2. Legal representation
If you do not have a lawyer, you can request a lawyer at the Juridisch Loket, or Legal Desk (telephone 0900-8020). If you are in detention, you will be given a lawyer,
3. Avoiding prosecution and proposal for an out-of-court settlement
4.
If only a monetary fine has been imposed, you can ask the public prosecutor to propose an out-of-court settlement. In this proposal, the public prosecutor will set the conditions you must satisfy to avoid criminal proceedings. If you pay the maximum of the monetary penalty within the time set, the public prosecutor cannot refuse your request for a proposal for an out-of-court settlement. If you fulfil the conditions stated in this proposed out-of-court settlement then this summons will lapse and you need not appear before the court. It may happen that the public prosecutor will offer you a proposed out-of-court settlement before your court date, or has already done so. You are not required to accept it. In such a case, however, the summons remains in force.
5. Objections
If you wish to file a notice of objection against this summons you must do so within eight days of the date of this summons and before the start of the court hearing. This does not apply to matters before the sub-district court. If you wish to file a notice of objection it is important that you state why you do not agree with this summons. You must submit your notice of objection, personally, to the Clerk of the Court. You lawyer or someone to whom you have given a special written power of attorney may also do this. You may not file a notice of objection if you have already received notice of further prosecution for the same charge,
6. Requesting postponement of the session
You can ask the court for a postponement of the proceedings of your case, for example, if you cannot prepare adequately or if you cannot appear due to illness or a scheduled holiday. Request the postponement of the proceedings of your case as soon as possible after receiving the summons. You must do this in writing, stating your name, the date of the hearing, and the public prosecutor's office number in your letter along with why you want the postponement. If you have a receipt for the booking of a trip or a physician's certificate, include it. Send your request to the Clerk of the Court. If you would like more information about this, contact the Clerk of the Court (see the front for the address, or go to www.rechtspraak.nl ).
The Court is not obliged to postpone the session. You must also enquire personally before the hearing date whether you have been given a postponement.
7. Witness and experts
8.
The public prosecutor can call witnesses and experts to appear at the hearing. If any witnesses and experts have been called, this will be stated on the summons. You can also bring witnesses and experts to the hearing. It would be appreciated if you so notify the public prosecutor in advance. You will be responsible for any costs associated with this. You can also ask the public prosecutor to call witnesses and/or experts for you. Direct such a request in writing to the public prosecutor at least ten days before the court session. If the summons is sent to you later than fourteen days before the court session, then you are obliged to ask the public prosecutor to call witnesses and/or experts for you within four days after the date of the summons but no later than three days before the court session. You are to describe these witnesses and/or experts by the name, profession, and place of residence of the persons desired. The public prosecutor is not required to call for you the witnesses and experts you have requested. If you do not agree with the public prosecutor's decision, you can make this known to the judge at the session. It is no longer possible to have new witnesses and experts called after proceedings have been suspended.
9. Information about the judgment
If this summons has been served on your personally or if you, your authorised lawyer or your representative is present at the (further) session(s), the judgment of the Court becomes irrevocable after 14 days and you will not receive any notice of this. This will also be the case if there were special reasons by which you were able to know in advance the day of the session. You can obtain information about the judgment from the Clerk of the Court or from your lawyer. If you have made a motion for adjournment, you must inform yourself whether this has been honoured.
10. Possibility of appeal
If you do not agree with the decision of the court, you can appeal to a higher court within fourteen days.
How?
You can do so by going to the Clerk of the Court and filling in a form that you must sign, or by asking your lawyer to lodge an appeal, or by sending a letter to the Clerk of the Court.
Note carefully: you must state clearly in this letter that you grant the Clerk the authorisation to lodge an appeal on your behalf and that you authorise the Clerk of the Court on your behalf to receive the notice of the appeal hearing. The Clerk will then forward this notice to the address you have provided.
Your appeal will not always be taken up!
If you have been sentenced only to pay a monetary penalty of up to €500 and if it concerned a charge or charges for which the maximum punishment was four years imprisonment, the President of the Court of Appeal could decide not to have the higher court take up your case again. It is therefore important that you clearly inform the President in a letter (the notice of appeal) why you want to submit your case to a higher court. The Clerk must receive this letter within fourteen days after you have lodged your appeal. You will receive notice as to whether your appeal will be taken up or not. If the case is taken up you will receive a summons to appear before a session of the Court of Appeal. Should the case not be taken up, the judgment that you had appealed becomes irrevocable. You then have no further opportunity for appeal (remedy at law) and will receive a giro collection form within a few weeks to pay the penalty.
Do you have further questions? Take up contact with the Clerk of the Court. The contact details are on your summons.
Recording of your details in the Reference Index of Persons
Your personal details will be recorded in an automated system. For more information about this, contact the district court public prosecutor's office [arrondissementsparket]. Its address is given on the front of this summons.
