Opatření ukládaná v trestním řízení proti mladistvým. / Measures administered against juveniles in criminal proceedingsJAROŠOVÁ, Erika January 2009 (has links)
Act no. 218/2003 Coll. on liability of juveniles for illegal acts and on juvenile justice established new rules in criminal proceedings with juveniles and introduced brand new methods of sanctioning juvenile delinquents in criminal processes, specifically it introduced a number of new measures which can be administered as punishments for wrongdoings including the possibility of alternative solutions to committed wrongful acts. The degree work is divided into two parts. The theoretical portion provides information about potential solutions and approaches when measures are administered in criminal proceedings with juvenile offenders including the theoretical background. The empirical portion maps out the ratio of measures administered by prosecuting and adjudicating bodies in pre-trial proceedings and measures administered by juvenile courts; the degree work also summarizes all solutions to criminal matters related to juveniles; the quantitative research focused on the District Court in Strakonice during the period of 2004 and 2008. The objectives of the research correlated with hypotheses which the author based on her experience gained in her job as a juvenile social probation officer. The research showed that during the monitored period 64% of juvenile criminal issues were resolved directly by the juvenile court and only 36% of acts committed by juvenile delinquents were closed by prosecuting and adjudicating bodies during pre-trial proceedings. The second portion of the research proved that the most frequently utilized measures {--} 54% - were criminal sanctions; 44% of juvenile criminal cases were solved by means of alternative measures, while reformatory measures were administered only to 2% of juvenile delinquents and protective measures were not utilized at all. The degree work was intended to briefly demonstrate whether the purpose of the Act on juvenile justice is fulfilled. Its onclusions are intended for professional public and for all people who are interested in criminal law, criminal proceedings and juvenile delinquency.

Die aard van borgverrigtinge met spesifieke verwysing na die toepassing van die reels van die bewysreg op sodanige verrigtingeHendriks, Renette 04 1900 (has links)
Thesis (LLM) -- Stellenbosch University, 2004. / Stellenbosch University. Faculty of Law. Dept. of Public Law. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: When evaluating a bail application, the court must take into consideration the interests
of the accused against those of the community. The main goal of this assessment is to find a
balance between said interests. While an application for bail is made at a stage where guilt
has not been proven, it is of extreme importance that the court must not infringe on the
fundamental rights of the accused which include the right to personal freedom and the
presumption of innocence.
In order to protect the rights of the bail applicant within the proper functioning of the
legal system, it is important to determine the nature of bail proceedings. As shown in this
thesis, bail proceedings are sui gelleris in nature, which means that a separate set of rules of
the law of evidence is applicable to these proceedings. The object of this thesis is to identify
the rules of law of evidence applicable to bail proceedings as well as to clarify the deviation
from the normal rules of evidence which apply to the trial of the accused.
In chapter one the purpose and nature of bail proceedings as well as the characteristics
of accusatorial and inquisitorial systems, are discussed. Problem areas within the South
African legal system with regards to bail applications are also highlighted in this chapter.
In chapter two the application of the primary rules of the law of evidence with regards
to bail proceedings are investigated as well as the admissibility of evidence pertaining to prior
convictions of the applicant, opinion evidence and character evidence. In chapter three the
admissibility of hearsay evidence at bail proceedings is discussed. The constitutionality of
the privilege pertaining to the police docket is dealt with in chapter four. Chapter five deals
with the infom1er's privilege. The requirements that have to be met in order to qualify for
protection under the said privilege, are examined.
Chapter six focuses on the privilege against self-incrimination and the manner In
which it is applied in bail proceedings. The provisions of s 60(11B)(c) of the Criminal
Procedure Act and the role of the presiding officer are also discussed in this chapter.
Chapter seven focuses on the burden of proof in bail applications. Chapter eight
contains a summary and recommendations. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: By die beoordeling van 'n borgaansoek moet die hof die be lange van die beskuldigde
en die belange van die samelewing teen mekaar opweeg. Die doel van die betrokke
verrigtinge is om 'n balans tussen hierdie belange te vind. Omdat borgtog ter sprake kom op
'n tydstip waar daar nog geen skuldigbevinding is nie, is dit van kardinale belang dat die hof
ten aile tye moet waak teen die onregverdige inbreukmaking op die beskuldigde se
fundamentele regte wat onder andere die reg op individuele vryheid en die vem10ede van
onskuld insluit.
Ten einde die regte van die borgaansoeker na behore te beskem1 sonder om die
behoorlike funksionering van die regstelsel te belemmer, is dit belangrik om vas te stel wat
die aard van borgverrigtinge is. Soos in hierdie tesis aangetoon word, is borgverrigtinge sui
generis van aard. Dit het tot gevolg dat daar 'n aparte stel reels van die bewysreg bestaan wat
op hierdie verrigtinge van toepassing is. In hierdie tesis word daar gepoog om die reels van
die bewysreg wat op borgverrigtinge van toepassing is, te identifiseer en om die afwykings
van die gewone bewysregreels wat op die verhoor van toepassing is, te verklaar.
In hoofstuk een word die doel en aard van borgverrigtinge bespreek en word die
kenmerke van die akkusatoriale en inkwisitoriale stelsels teen mekaar gestel. Die
onduidelikhede oor die aard van borgverrigtinge in die Suid-Afrikaanse reg word ook
aangeraak. In hoofstuk twee word die toepassing van die relevantheidsgrondreel by
borgverrigtinge ondersoek, asook die toelaatbaarheid van getuienis oor die vorige
veroordelings van die beskuldigde, opiniegetuienis en karaktergetuienis.
Hoofstuk drie het betrekking op die toelaatbaarheid van hoorsegetuienis by
borgverrigtinge. In hoofstuk vier word kwessies rakende dossierprivilegie behandel en die
grondwetlikheid van sodanige privilegie, asook die toepassing daarvan, word van naderby
beskou. In hoofstuk vyf word daar gefokus op die aanbrengersprivilegie. Die aard en
toepassing van die privilegie asook die vereistes waaraan voldoen moet word alvorens daar
op die betrokke privilegie gesteun kan word, word aangeraak.
Hoofstuk ses fokus op die borgapplikant se privilegie teen selfinkriminasie. Die
bepalings van a 60(11 B)(c) asook die rol van die voorsittende beampte word ook in hierdie
hoofstuk aangespreek. Die sewende kwessie wat in verband met borgverrigtinge in die stu die
ondersoek word, is die ligging van die bewyslas by sodanige verrigtinge. Dit word In
hoofstuk sewe gedoen. Hoofstuk agt bevat 'n opsomming van sowel bevindings as
aanbevelings.

Previous issue date: 2013-08-23 / Diante do atual modelo penal e processual penal n?o atender aos reclamos das partes interessadas, gerando um descr?dito na Justi?a de um modo geral, surge a Justi?a Restaurativa como uma alternativa para solucionar tais problemas e como elemento de concretiza??o do Estado Democr?tico Constitucional. A Constitui??o Federal de 1988 representa o s?mbolo maior do processo de democratiza??o e de constitucionaliza??o nacional. O Princ?pio da Dignidade da Pessoa contida no texto constitucional consiste num dos principais fundamentos da Rep?blica Federativa do Brasil, funcionando como respaldo aos direitos e garantias fundamentais do cidad?o, sobretudo na seara criminal. A partir do processo de constitucionaliza??o nacional, ocorre uma releitura das legisla??es infra-constitucionais, que passam a ser interpretadas de acordo com o texto constitucional. Atualmente, a conjuntura jur?dico-penal p?tria est? associada ? ideia de garantismo, ligada ao conceito de Estado Democr?tico Constitucional. Apresenta-se a Justi?a Restaurativa como um novo modelo de Justi?a Penal, mais flex?vel e humanizado, visando al?m da aplica??o da pena imposta pelo Estado, superar uma situa??o de conflito, na busca por resultados positivos no combate e redu??o da criminalidade, a satisfa??o da v?tima e a mudan?a da cultura de viol?ncia, compat?vel com as diretrizes do Estado Democr?tico Constitucional. A partir da an?lise do direito internacional e de projetos e legisla??es nacionais envolvendo a Justi?a Restaurativa, percebe-se a efic?cia das medidas restaurativas na solu??o de conflitos dentro do Processo Penal, al?m da satisfa??o da v?tima, do infrator e de familiares na participa??o dos encontros restaurativos, constituindo ferramenta de satisfa??o da dignidade humana, dentro de uma perspectiva humanista e garantista

Freed by the Court: The Role of Images Between Remembrance and Oblivion of War CrimesRistić, Katarina 21 June 2024 (has links)
This paper explores the role of images in facilitating debates on the
responsibility of convicted war criminals. Previous research on the mediation of
war crime trials in Serbia has mainly focused on political and media discourses
or everyday practices as verbal or textual modes of communication, showing the
dominant nationalism and widespread denial, with convicted war criminals
appearing as heroes and celebrities. This article argues that the normalization
of convicts was partially realized through the avoidance of atrocity images and
the prevalence of iconic images of convicts, who are described as persons “freed
by the court.” The paper explores two instances when iconic images of convicts
served as catalysts in debates on their criminal responsibility, pointing out that
images might limit the scope of the debate, and condition the type of questions
posed. Archival atrocity images, on the other hand, might provide much-needed
context and evidence about crimes. Considering the powerful role of images, the
article urges a more systematic analysis of images in the transitional justice
field, as some of the images turn into symbolic presentations of the past for
future generations.

Prvé poznatky s uplatňováním zákona č. 45/2013 Sb. o obětech trestných činů v praxi poskytovatelů pomoci / First experiences of Act No. 45/2013 about crime victims in practice of assistance providersKořínková, Ivana January 2015 (has links)
(in English): The aim of the work was to describe the experience of the providers of assistance to victims of crime with the use of the law in their practice. The experience and the views of the providers were obtained in the form of a questionnaire survey. As a source of data for addressing service has been utilized to view all registered entities providing their services to the victims of the crimes on the web site of the Ministry of justice. The work was focused on the practical application of selected provisions of act no. 45/2013 Coll. and from its results revealed that providers in your practice are finding that the provisions relating to particularly vulnerable victims, are defined too narrowly. Also the communication between the provider and the police is not yet ideally set.
