Discuții privitoare la compatibilitatea dintre judecata în cazul recunoașterii vinovăției și circumstanța atenuantă prevăzută în art. 74 alin. (1) lit. c) C. pen.
Debates on the compatibility between the judgment in case of admission of guilt and the mitigating circumstance provided for under Article 74 para. (1) (c) of the Criminal Code

Summary/Abstract: By the judgement passed in the criminal case no. 754/2012, the High Court of Cassation and Justice held that, where the provisions of Article 3201 Code of Criminal Procedure are applicable, honest behaviour during the trial, consisting in the admission of having committed the acts retained in the document instituting the proceedings, cannot be considered a legal mitigating circumstance, referred to in Article 74 para. (1) (c) thesis II of the Criminal Code. This interpretation is questionable, because there is a legal difference between the two institutions, which doed not preclude their concomitant application.
