Proceedings related to the execution of the penalty of restriction of liberty — institutional aspects

Summary/Abstract: The study concerns the penalty of restriction of liberty, especially its amendment from 2015. This amendment was certainly the most important one during the validity period of the current codification, because it actually changed the place of the penalty of restriction of liberty in the structure of all penalties. This circumstance is also important from a dogmatic point of view, as there were — as has already been pointed out — views in the doctrine recognizing the penalty of restriction of liberty on the basis of medium- level crimes as an “alternative” to the penalty of deprivation of liberty without a con- ditional suspension of its execution. It seems that from the perspective of Art. 58 § 1 of the Penal Code and the current penal policy, the discussed type of criminal punishment aspires to be perceived as a form of legal and criminal reaction consistent with the or- dinary order of things in relation to crimes punishable by up to five years imprisonment.
