In modern Slovak and Czech history, we are exceptionally confronted with retribution trial proceedings, which are so topical in the 21st century, as in the case of Jan Antonín Baťa. The media in recent years have brought much, often contradictory, information about the fate of J. A. Baťa, who was convicted in 1947 by the National Court in Prague as a war criminal. The course of Baťa’s retribution process has crossed the borders of Czechoslovakia and Europe as well. Until the end of his life, J. A. Baťa declared his innocence and considered the process against his person to be manipulated and purposeful. The story of his life is, however, much more complicated than his condemnation. He was the head of one of the largest concerns in Czechoslovakia and in the world. His life is full of magnificent ascents and equally great economic and human downfalls. For example, there is a stain on his reputation from a lawsuit between him and Maria Baťová, the widow of his step brother Tomáš Baťa, and Tomáš Baťa Jr.

The main objective of the present study is to approach the course of retribution in the town Banská Bystrica in the period 1945 – 1947, focusing on its social aspects. In other words, we were a common man, a general member of the political organizations of the First Slovak Republic, for whom the end of the war was marked by possible imprisonment, trial and social contempt, which could have been amplified by the Communists' coming to power in 1948. By analysing the investigation and judicial files of the local of the People's Court in Banská Bystrica, we tried to create the most objective picture of the course of retribution in the city, summarizing our results and using the analytical and comparative method to evaluate the results of our research.

Participants were led to believe that they have made a mistake which has thwarted experimenter's work. The experimenter has forgiven them, or he has not, and asked them or not for a favor. In the first study, participants who experienced forgiveness only ("pure" forgiveness condition) liked the experimenter more than participants who experienced forgiveness along with the request for a favor. Similar pattern of results was revealed when participant evaluated the experimenter's competence, intention to be in contact with him, and the study in general. The second study only partially replicated the described results. In this study, participants' mood was also assessed. Under conditions of "pure" forgiveness, participants mood increased, and under conditions of "conditional" forgiveness it decreased. Results of both studies suggest that condi-tions of pure forgiveness and conditions of lack of forgiveness associated with the possibility to redress the wrongdoing are emotionally equivalent (equally positive) and different from the condition of lack of forgiveness associated with no chance to redress the wrongdoing.

The article is a summary of characteristic of London retribution decree and Retribution Act No. 33/1945 Col. of Slovak National Council in epoch of post war Czechoslovakia republic. Major problem of this study, taking into account wide scope of this problem doesn't include whole problem of post war retribution, but to focus at certain factors which affected creation and application of retribution decrees within Bohemia and Slovakia, but also difficulties related with people's court activities. The author has tried to point out on injustice of political representatives and judges, which led to punishment not only true war criminals, but too many innocent people, whose only guilt was their patriotism. He thinks that retribution is warning for future to carry out punishment of criminal acts not based on emotions or political interests, but only and solely justice grounds.
