Resumé The tactical procedures if overcoming the false testimony The subject of my diploma work is the tactical procedures of overcoming the false testimony.

The central concepts which are connected with tactical procedures and methods are the testimony and the interrogation.

Fryčová, Linda ; Konrád, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Štourač, Petr (referee)
55 Tactic of examination - resumé Already a title of my thesis "Tactic of examination" outlines what my thesis is about. I focused on general perspective of examination and on problems of basic tactical processes of examination by paying an attention to aspects which have the most significant impact on an examination as a complex process. There is no doubt that an outcome of an examination and the entire criminal procedure depends on the right choice of proper tactical processes, so this is not necessary to emphasize their importance. From this reason an analysis of tactical processes plays a key role of the thesis. In the "Introduction" I focused on an understanding of an examination and its position among criminal methods and its role in a criminal procedure. I attempted to explain and to outline chronologically the content of the thesis and I split this work into four base parts. In the first part "General problematic of an examination and statement" I explained a concept of an examination and its purpose and I provided a complete picture of the most frequent kinds of examinations. I dealt with a legal regulation of examination and I described a statement as a product of an examination. In the second part "Preparation of examination" I focused on preparation of an examiner for an examination because...
