Criminal Law, Criminology and Criminalistics Section

Current Challenges of Criminal Law

Within the criminal law section, attention will be paid to current issues of substantive criminal law and procedural criminal law from the theoretical and application points of view. Attention will also be paid to proposed amendments to the Criminal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code. Special focus will be paid to the effectiveness of preliminary proceedings from the point of view of the proceedings of law enforcement authorities, their decision-making and the use of alternatives to criminal prosecution. Deficiencies in their procedure will also be identified and topics for possible changes in cases-in-chief in preliminary proceedings will be proposed.
