Summary/Abstract: The present paper intends to analyze the real and effective possibility of a civil party in a criminal trial torecover the damage created by the convicted person, under the conditions in which the criminal court orders the sentence to imprisonment but chooses as the option of executing the sentence, a supervised suspension. The basic idea of the present study starts from the possibility of the civil party to request the revocation of the suspension under supervision of the sentence applied to the convicted person, given that it has no other methods to recover his damage by other means of coercion. Present study aims to analyze the jurisprudential optics of the Romanian courts, notified with the solution of such a request, the argumentation being concentrated around the criteria in relation to which the conduct of the convicted person is analyzed during the probation period. The institution of the revocation of the suspended sentence under supervision established by the Romanian legislator is not adapted to the socio-economic conditions in Romania, in the sense that the provisions of the positive law do not establish the criteria in relation to which the criminal court can settle such a request. The academic and practical interest of the present approach is mainly given by the comparative presentation of the solutions pronounced in this field, starting from a specific case analyzed critically. The scope of addressability of the work is relatively extended, being useful not only to the legal practitioners: lawyers, executors, probation counselors, prosecutors, judges, etc., but also to the civil parties - naturalor legal persons (public institutions or commercial companies), being in the impossibility of recovering the damage definitively found by a criminal decision convicting the defendant who committed mainly an economic offense, or subsidiary any offense against the patrimony.
