The public advocate
Mikanová, Markéta ; Matula, Miloš (advisor) ; Kuba, Jaroslav (referee)
Nowadays the office of the ombudsman is considered as one of the main institutions, which should not lack in any democratic country. The actual ombudsman of Czech republic Mgr. Anna Šabatová Ph.D. solves many causes, of which some are mentioned in this thesis. Public advocate is expected to be independent and available for people to advise them in case of negotiation with institutions, that are in his or her competence. By constitution of law no. 349/1999 Sb. the institution of ombudsman was anchored in Czech republic. The objective of my thesis is to explain the evolution of ombudsman from the moment of the constitution of the law, till present, to analyze the law itself and to focus on the office of the public advocate. Further, I compare the institution of ombudsman with other countries and define recommendations for adjustment of law about the public advocate in Czech republic. First of all I recommend to install specialized ombudsman for different areas, set up requirements of education of public advocate and a possibility to appeal him or her in case of long-term disease, which hinders him or her to perform.

The Ombudsman and his relationship to the judicial power
Rybová, Lucie ; Matula, Miloš (advisor) ; Grospič, Jiří (referee)
The aim of the thesis is to characterize the institution of the Ombudsman, his place in the distribution of powers and, above all, to analyze its relationship to the judicial power. The thesis is divided into five parts, with the first three parts focused on the theoretical description of the institution of the Ombudsman and its role in the control system of public administration. The fourth part characterizes the institution of the Ombudsman, his place in the distribution of power and its relationship to the judicial power. The fifth part is focused specifically on the relationship of the Ombudsman and the courts. The institution of the Ombudsman has the duty to protect citizens against acts of authorities, which may be in conflict with the law, against their inactivity and against the behavior that does not conform to the principles of good governance and the principles of the rule of a democratic State. Unlike an Ombudsman, the courts only protect citizens against unlawful acts. The courts have the availability to render decisions which are enforceable by the State power. The relationship between the Ombudsman and judicial power is characterized by a high degree of independence.
