Resume This thesis deals with the first degree offence proceedings. Taking into consideration a large extent of the topic, the thesis is focused just on few of the most important institutes. Besides a short definition of the basic terms and their contents, the thesis aims its attention to sources in which an adjustment of offence proceedings on international as well as national level is included. Especially European Convention on Human Rights and activity of European Court on Human Rights (ECHR) that is connected to the Convention are important elements in the system.

Problems in Applying the Free Access to Information Act1 By integration of the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms into the "constitutional order"2 , the Czech Republic declared the acknowledgment of the principles of democratic legal state. Wording of the Charter is in accordance with the most relevant international documents on human rights, therefore it also anchors the right to freedom of expression, closely related to the right to information as the significant means of controlling public administration by engaged public. The diction of article 17 (5) shows that the change in the conception of public affairs administration occurred when the discrete administration was abandoned for the administration publicity principle which ought to be implemented with maximum of openness and transparency. The right to information has found its statutory expression in the Act on Free Access to Information that was passed in the year of 1999.
