The crime can be viewed from the perspective of certain legal relationships – the relationship of one subject (offender) to the rights of another (victim), which are central importance to their occurrence through the legal fact – socially dangerous unlawful actions. Preventing the emergence of these relations also generates certain social relations but with another meaning. Involving a person in criminally liable generates a criminal and legal relationship between the accused and the judiciary. If the guilt of a person is proved in law and established in a guilty verdict handed down by a court, this must entail to certain criminal and legal relations of a different kind. These relationships depend on the form to implement criminal liability chosen by the court with the inherent purpose of each of them. Achieving the goal is also capable to generate the relevant legal relationship. The functions of criminal law and the functions of the law on criminal responsibility are mutually related categories and are in an appropriate relationship. This makes it possible to confirm the existence of a chain of relevant criminal and legal phenomena: the purpose of criminal law → purpose of the law on criminal responsibility → functionality generates a variety of public relations of criminal and legal nature → the sum of such social relations forms the subject of the relevant field of law.
