Summary/Abstract: A very important question in determining of payment of non-material and non-pecuniary material damage is the question of moment as of which interests on arrears on defined amounts of compensation start running, i.e. the question of the moment of maturity of the mentioned compensations is implicitly raised. The paper analyzes the importance and function of interests on arrears, defines the term and suppositions of debtor’s lateness related to compensation for non-pecuniary damages, it presents past court practice as well as solutions from the draft new Law on Contract and Torts dated from 2003 in terms of maturity of claims for interests on arrears on compensation of damages, it notices incompleteness of existing legislative solutions and presents proposals of possible “lex ferenda” solutions.
