Crime of fraud, credit and loan fraud pursuant to section 209,210, 211 and 212 of the Criminal Code
Doseděl, Marek ; Vokoun, Rudolf (advisor) ; Vanduchová, Marie (referee)
Nowadays effective Criminal code, No. 40/2009 Coll., contains the criminal offence of a fraud (Section 209) and it's special cases such as the insurance (Section 210), loan (Section 211) and subsidy fraud (Section 212). Nevertheless, the situation hasn't been always like this. Less than twenty years ago the Czech effective legislature contained only the criminal offence of the so called "general" fraud. However the impossibility to persecute all of the fraudulent delinquency by applying the "general" fraud section led the legislator to amend the Criminal Code by adding three above mentioned special sections. The imperfection of the legal system in regards to the fraudulent behaviour (especially related to banks and insurance companies) in the 1990's had dramatically effected the economy of the country and formed a negative prejudice and inauspicious experience with privatisation of the state property etc. among the entire society. These days during the global financial recession has the number of fraudulent behaviour risen significantly, since the lack of procurements, the low employment rate, the general indebtedness etc. bring the debtors to the very boarder of the financial cliff of insolvency and "force" them to commit criminal offences. Therefore, it's highly important to use special tools to...

Criminal-law treatment of fraudulent conduct Abstract The Act No. 40/2009 Coll., the Criminal Code, effective as of the date of this thesis, penalizes one's behavior fulfilling the criminal signs of a fraud (Section 209 of the Act) and its special variations, such as insurance fraud (Section 210 of the Act), loan fraud (Section 211 of the Act) and subsidy fraud (Section 212 of the Act). This means that four separate criminal offences are penalizing fraudulent delinquency under the Czech legislation. Laws penalizing fraudulent delinquency have developed rapidly over the post- revolutionary era and reflected new social and political environment. It was mainly the lack of ability to punish all fraudulent actions by applying the so called general fraud provisions (nowadays Section 209 of the Act) which served as the initial power motivating legislators to pass an amendment containing provisions regarding the three abovementioned criminal offences that are penalizing fraudulent behavior relating to insurance, loans and subsidies. This action taken by the legislators is generally perceived as suitable since, as mainly demonstrated in the nineties of the twentieth century, fraudulent criminality has broad-reaching effects impacting the country's economics and the society's trust in the rule of law. Legal theory...
