Activities Extraordinary People's Courts in the period 1945- 1948
Feniková, Petra ; Šouša, Jiří (referee)
1 Activities Extraordinary People's Courts in the period 1945-1948 Abstract The aim of my dissertation was to evaluate the activities of extraordinary people's courts in the period 1945-1948, which were established on the basis of Decree of the President of the Republic No. 16/1945 Coll. on the punishment of Nazi criminals, traitors and their helpers and on the extraordinary people's courts of June 19, 1945, also called the Great Retribution Decree. Particular emphasis was placed on examining the substance of the defendants' procedural rights in proceedings before these courts. The work, in its first rather theoretical part, descriptively identifies and analyses the procedural rights of offenders, which were associated with proceedings before retribution courts. The large retribution decree itself referred to the application of the then valid Criminal Procedure Code, which was Act No. 119/1873 Coll., Which introduces a new code of the Criminal Court, as amended (Criminal Procedure Code). It was thus necessary to examine which other procedural rights, in addition to those set out directly in the text of the decree, were applied in the proceedings. For this purpose, in addition to legal norms, implementing regulations were used, not only at the level of decrees, but also directives, instructions or...

ACTIVITIES Extraordinary People's Courts in the period 1945- 1948 Abstract The purpose of my PhD. Viva thesis was analysis of standards created on the basis of the Decrees in relation to to the activities of Extraordinary People's Courts in individual regions, as a means to punish war crimes, traitors and collaborators. Retributive justice was a response to the events of the war. The legal regulations concerning both topics were not created spontaneously in response to the end of the wartime conflict, but were prepared over an extended period by the government in exile and international organisations during the war. As well as a general list and description of the basic Decree legislation, the author's goal was also to describe to readers implementation of these regulations during the chaotic post-war period in Czechoslovakia. Implementary regulations were used for this purpose, not only on the level of decrees, but also in the form of guidelines, instructions or interpretive standpoints, which expounded the fairly terse provisions of the Decree and also responded to the current problems concerning interpretation at the time. Specific criminal cases heard by the Extraordinary People's Courts were also processed for the purpose of fulfilling this goal, so that the author was able to illustrate practical...

Confiscation in 1945 - 1948 - activities of extraordinary people's courts in individual regions

Confiscation in 1945 - 1948 - activities of extraordinary people's courts in individual regions Abstract This work discuses confiscation of immovable and movable property after the Second World War according to Decrees by President Edvard Beneš (The Beneš Decrees) and also retributive justice, which was executed chiefly by means of Extraordinary People's Courts, and which is also based on the standards created by the Decrees. The work contains interpretation of the Decrees and their implementary regulations, and also an excursion into the period of their preparation and origin, from which it is possible to infer the context and importance of some of the provisions of legal regulations, which the legislative text itself cannot provide. The work also contains a description of several specific cases heard by Extraordinary People's Courts, and also specific cases of administrative proceedings, the content of which was confiscation of movable and immovable property. Both post-war confiscation of property and retributive justice were a response to the events of the war (illegitimate transfer of property, war crimes committed against the population) and also a means to restore post-war Czechoslovakia. The legal regulations concerning both topics were not created spontaneously in response to the end of the wartime...
