Effectiveness of conditional release in the context of reasons for its appeal
Journal Title: The Polish Journal of Criminology - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The article presents selected changes in the functioning of the conditional release institution as well as conditional release appeal. This paper aims to discuss the effectiveness of applying conditional release in the context of reasons, which cause its negative ending, that is its appeal. Application of the so-called electronic surveillance has been seen to influence the number of conditional releases and decrease the number of positively considered applications for conditional release. It was concluded that the scope of reasons resulting in conditional release appeal has changed, because as far as in 2013 a court decision of this sort would most often result from violation of legal order by the convicted, this has changed since 2014 and the main reason for appeal was the convict’s evasion of surveillance, duties, penal measures or other reasons of similar nature. The article ends with conclusions.<br/><br/>
