Summary/Abstract: The institution of preventive supervision is based on familiar solutions, existingin the applicable law. It is intended as a non-legal measure that could be used by familycourts in situations of domestic violence. This supervision would be imposed on individualsusing violence, against whom actions taken by the working groups of Local Interdisciplinary Teams would be ineffective, and whose behavior would not meet the criteria for a violentcrime to the detriment of the relatives. This measure would additionally aim at strengtheningthe measures undertaken by the members of the said working groups. It would be executedby probation officers for adults, who are specialized in working with adults acting againstthe legal order in force.This institution broadens the catalog of powers of a probation officerfor adults. At the same time, it is a new solution that offers new opportunities to confrontdomestic violence.
