The right of defense in the Czech criminal proceedings The right for a defence is a right of the defendant guaranteed by the Constitution and by its means represents one of the conditions for a fair-minded trial. The fair-minded decision can be achieved when the defendant is guaranteed a proper application of the right of defence over the whole trial. The goal of my diploma thesis is to expound the constituent rights of the defendant which together create the right of defence. In the whole diploma thesis I am trying to present the current legal alterations, pointing out their imperfections, which appear at the carrying out of defence in the practice and describe the mutual relationship of the defendant and the defence counsel. In the first part of the thesis I am focusing on the general definition of the right of defence the way it is regulated on the legal and constitutional level in the Czech Republic and I also state how it is enshrined in the international agreements within whose meanings the Czech Republic is bounded according to the 10th article of the Constitution. In the second chapter I am describing the position of the defence counsel and the defendant in the criminal proceedings and persons, which can in the criminal proceeding act (appear) on the side of the defence.

The defence by the defence counsel during the trial Abstract The aim of the thesis is not only to analyze both the position of the defence counsel and the accused in criminal proceedings, including their rights and obligations arising from this position, but in particular to define the limits in which both the accused and the defence counsel can exercise the right of defence.

The Master's Thesis deals with the issue of the choice of a defence counsel and attorney for a legal entity in criminal proceedings in the context of the right to a fair trial and the right to defence of a legal entity. Defence of a legal entity in criminal proceedings is exercised by persons authorised to act on its behalf. If those persons find themselves in the incompatible procedural position of an accused, a witness or a victim in the same case, they are excluded by law from all acts on behalf of the legal entity in criminal proceedings on the grounds of a presumption of conflict of interests. The title of the Master's Thesis is based on the conclusions of the case law of the Constitutional Court which case law, in order to preserve the right of defence of a legal entity, also grants a person in an incompatible procedural position of an accused or a witness the right to choose a defence counsel or an attorney for the legal entity, subject to other conditions described in this Master's Thesis. I get focused in the introductory part on the description of the rudiments of criminal liability of legal entities, I mention the legal regulation which is used in the Master's Thesis and I summarize what is its content. Subsequently, I deal with the definition of individual persons authorised to act on...
