Fialková, Jana ; Tlapák Navrátilová, Jana (advisor) ; Herczeg, Jiří (referee)
House Arrest Punishment, Its Enforcement and Control According to the new Criminal Code the house arrest sentence has been introduced into the Czech legal order. The repeated incorporation of this institute into our legal order represents a reaction to the situation in our society - the so called crises of the custodial prison sentence. The causes of introducing of this punishment are e.g. the intention to ease the conditions in overcrowded prisons, to save substantial amounts of money, and last but not least, to maintain positive family and work relationships of the convict. House arrest belongs among alternative sentences, i.e. punishments not connected with confining somebody into prison, which nevertheless enable to reach the purpose of the punishment equally as imposing custodial prison sentence. House arrest represents the most severe alternative sentence, which is obvious from its inserting into the provision of § 52 Criminal Code right after imprisonment. House arrest occurs in two basic types, which are the programs called ,,Back-end" a ,,Front-end". Further we distinguish between house arrest forms connected with electronic monitoring and forms without it. From July 1, 2012 to November 30, 2012 "Experimental Electronic Monitoring of the Convicted Persons" took place, the results of which clearly...

House arrest is a type of sentence when offender serves his sentence at home instead of prison. He or she must stay at home at night from 22.00 till 5.00 or in time determined by court and all the weekends and public holidays. It means that the sentenced person is able to perform his job or studies and take care of his/her family. Other reason for enacting the house arrest sentence is that the convicted person is not affected by the prison environment, which makes his return to normal life difficult or even impossible. Very important is also the financial matter of the sentence, because compared to imprisonment, the house arrest should save more than 2/3 of expenses. A court may impose house arrest when the criminal offence is punishable by the prison sentence in maximum duration of 5 years.

The thesis is divided into nine chapters mapping the structure of alternative punishments currently existing in the Czech criminal law. The beginning of the paper covers the groundwork of the thesis, i.e. the explanation of the concept of punishment and its purpose. Immediately afterwards follows the outline of the concept of restorative justice, which represents an ideological foundation for the alternatives to the prison sentence, as it carries significant benefits that stem from the different outlook on the very essence of crime. An important role in advancing the principles of restorative justice is played by Probation and Mediation Service. The chapter details specific tasks of probation officers with regard to probation and mediation as well as changes that took place as the new Criminal Code came into effect. Following chapters are devoted to the history of alternative punishments in the country, starting with the adoption of The General Code on Crime and Punishment by Joseph II and ending with the current Criminal Code, as well as to the influence of international bodies on the development of this branch of criminal law, specifically the United Nations, the Council of Europe and partially the European Union.
