Under the Act of 20 February 2015 – changing the Penal Code and some other acts, from 1 July 2015 the forfeiture has been removed from the catalogue of penalties – the art. 39 point 4 of the Penal Code was repealed – and also from the catalogue of security measures of an administrative nature – the wording of the art. 99 § 1 of the Penal Code has been changed, the art. 100 of the Penal Code has been repealed and its content has been transferred to the art. 49a of the Penal Code. Currently, the forfeiture is fully regulated in chapter Va of the Penal Code, entitled „Forfeiture and compensatory measures”. Changing the normative status of the forfeiture is not understood. I consider it as a mistake. This change was not associated with changes of the normative status of forfeiture in the Fiscal Penal Code and Code of Offences. Besides the changes concerning the status of the forfeiture which has obviously system nature under the amendment came to repeal the provisions of articles 44 § 8, 45 § 6 and art. 45 § 4 of the Penal Code. These were changes of organizational character. They were accompanied by changes in the provisions of the Executive Penal Code and Code of Criminal Procedure, which took over the content of the repealed provisions of the Penal Code. The wording of the art. 45 § 3 of the Penal Code regulating one of the legal presumptions relating to the forfeiture of financial benefits has been changed. This has increased the warranty standard of that provision.
