Journal Title: Białostockie Studia Prawnicze - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 23
Abstract
This article concerns procedural decisions that enable a complaint to be brought in criminal proceedings and the parties entitled to initiate this measure. It is worth emphasizing that the principles of appeal proceedings originate both in Polish law, primarily the Constitution of the Republic of Poland, as well as in international agreements such as the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights. According to art. 459 § 1 Code of Criminal Procedure, complaints may be brought against the decisions of a court which preclude the rendering of a judgment, against decisions with respect to a preventive measure, as well as against other decisions in cases prescribed under the Act. Th e right to fi le a complaint is vested in the parties and in any other person directly concerned by the decision, unless otherwise provided for in the Act. Th e article lists the features of the complaint and the indicated decisions to which the complaint applies. It then proceeds to criticize the current applicable provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure in this regard. Th e article stresses the importance attached to the right to appeal against judgments and decisions made in the fi rst instance, the connection between the complaint and the principle of twoinstances, and the principle of the right to a fair trial. Th e author concludes by off ering six postulates that may serve to improve the procedure initiated by the complaint.
