The Institution of Probation – A Comparative Overview of the Penal Code in Effect and the Project of the Penal Code

Summary/Abstract: Probation is an institution which is supervenient to the execution of prison sanctions, a means of administratively customizing the punishment, which consists of the dismission of the convict from prison prior to executing the entire sanction of imprisonment or life imprisonment, under the condition that the convict does not commit any other crimes until the full term of the punishment is fulfilled. Probation can be granted to any prisoner, regardless of the crime committed and irrespective of whether he has previously benefited from probation for any other punishment.
