CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE LEGAL ERROR IN THE REGULATION OF THE NEW CRIMINAL CODE

Summary/Abstract: Along with the implementation of the New Criminal Code, the legislator has decided to further regulate the institution of legal error. As simple as this statement may seem, the situation is not so. During these modern times, there are still states where the institution is not regulated, or it is defective. As for the situation in Romania, the legal error can take the shape of the criminal or extra-criminal legal error. Both of them regulate situations having the same source: the incognizance of the juridical norms for several reasons. The institution is all the more important so as it regulates aspects regarding the exoneration from criminal liability but, even so, we still encounter situations, in practice or doctrine, in which opinions are not unitary, especially in the field of the criminal procedural aspects.
