As part of a project supported by the Open Society Foundations, Hungary, specifically by the Human Rights Initiative, Res Publica has undertaken a study on the effectiveness of legal aid in the criminal justice process in Albania. The study was conducted through preliminary research on 5,152 court decisions from the Tirana Judicial District Court and an in-depth examination of 100 criminal case files. Quantitative data was supplemented with information from three focus groups consisting of judges, prosecutors, and lawyers who are primarily appointed. Monitoring of 200 court sessions provided additional data for the study. Both quantitative and qualitative data were accompanied by an analysis of the legal framework and the implementation of rules by the bodies administering legal aid.
