The article is about the legal character of the institution of forfeiture (article 412 of the Civil Code). It aims to determine the character (civil or criminal) of this institution.

It shows the perceived character of article 412 of the Civil Code in several periods, and presents a detailed analysis of the expression doctrine of individual periods relating to forfeiture. Particular attention is paid to the mechanism of action of the institution, its similarity to forfeiture as known in criminal law. Establishing the nature of the provision is based primarily on functions and purposes of the forfeiture provision.

The article presents my analysis of Polish planned law concerning the confiscation of enterprise’s property.

On 23 March 2017 the Sejm (the lower chamber of the Polish Parliament) passed the Act on Amending the Criminal Code and Numerous Other Acts23. In the reasons appended to the draft bill it was asserted that the law intended “to introduce into Polish substantive, executive and procedural criminal law amendments with a view to enhancing the effectiveness of mechanisms employed to deprive offenders of the benefits they accrued as a result of committing a crime”. This paper sets out to present a construction of Article 45 of the Polish Criminal Code as amended and to assess the correctness of the amendment, particularly in the context of the Polish Constitution and the Directive 2014/42/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 3 April 2014 on the freezing and confiscation of instrumentalities and proceeds of crime in the European Union.

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1 July 2015 the forfeiture has been removed from the catalogue of penalties – the art. 39 point 4 of the Penal Code was repealed – and also from the catalogue of security measures of an administrative nature – the wording of the art. 99 § 1 of the Penal Code has been changed, the art. 100 of the Penal Code has been repealed and its content has been transferred to the art. 49a of the Penal Code.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.

The research presented in the article aims to assess the scope of the normative freedom of EU Member States when implementing non-conviction based confiscation. This study was based on the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). The study shows that despite the broad discretion of the Member States resulting from the position of the CJEU, domestic regulation of this type of confiscation falls outside the scope of EU law; the extensive jurisprudence of the ECHR sets quite precise boundaries concerning the concept of confiscation without prior conviction. Thus, it limits the discretion of Member States in this regard, providing both safeguards for individuals and guidelines for national legislators that intend to develop non-conviction based confiscation regimes in their domestic legal system.

In the commented judgment, the Supreme Court took the view that the forfeiture of devices used for gaming machines imposed in the proceedings in fiscal offenses and fiscal misdemeanor cases does not constitute a penal measure, and therefore the cassation appeal against the ruling in the part regarding the penalty is not considered directed against forfeiture under extension of the scope of the appeal based on Article 447 § 2 of the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure. The paper presents arguments for this position to be considered erroneous and analyses the differences in the regulation of penal measures under general and fiscal criminal law and proposes the necessary legislative changes.

W komentowanym orzeczeniu Sąd Najwyższy stanął na stanowisku, że wymierzony w postępowaniu w sprawie o przestępstwo skarbowe przepadek urządzeń służących do gry na automatach nie stanowi środka karnego, w związku z czym kasacja wniesiona przeciwko orzeczeniu w części dotyczącej kary nie obejmuje rozstrzygnięcia dotyczącego przepadku w trybie rozszerzania zakresu zaskarżenia na podstawie art. 447 § 2 Kodeksu postępowania karnego. W pracy tej przedstawiono argumenty na rzecz uznania tego stanowiska za błędne oraz przeanalizowano różnice w zakresie regulacji środków karnych na gruncie powszechnego prawa karnego i prawa karnego skarbowego, a także wskazano propozycje niezbędnych w tym względzie zmian w ustawodawstwie.

Ustawa z 20 lutego 2015 r. wprowadziła zmiany do części szczególnej Kodeksu karnego dotyczące: podstaw orzekania przepadku (art. 139 k.k. i art. 140 § 4 k.k.), korzystania z ochrony przewidzianej dla funkcjonariuszy publicznych przez osoby działające w obronie koniecznej (nowy art. 231b k.k.), kryminalizacji niepowrócenia do zakładu psychiatrycznego, kryminalizacji niestosowania się do obowiązków orzeczonych przez sąd. Nowelizacja części szczególnej Kodeksu karnego nie jest obszerna i nie zawiera nowych rozwiązań, jakich wiele zaproponowała Komisja Kodyfikacyjna Prawa Karnego. Regulacje te mają raczej charakter techniczny oraz porządkujący, i to jedynie w takim zakresie, jaki bezpośrednio wynika ze zmian wprowadzonych do części ogólnej Kodeksu karnego oraz do Kodeksu karnego wykonawczego.

The Act of 20 February 2015 made changes to the special part of the Criminal Code concerning: the basis for forfeiture, the use of protection provided to public officials by persons acting in self-defense, the criminalization of people who have not returned to a psychiatric institution, the criminalization of non-compliance with the obligations ordered by the court. Amendments to the special part of the Criminal Code are not comprehensive and does not include the new arrangements proposed Criminal Law Codification Commission. These regulations are rather technical in nature and ordering, to the extent that directly results from changes made to the general part of the Criminal Code and the Code of Execution of Criminal Sentences.

Закон от 20 февраля 2015 года изменил особенною часть Уголовного кодекса: основы для конфискации (ст. 139 у.к. и ст. 140 § 4 у.к.), использование людьми действующими в самообороне защиты предусмотренной для государственных должностных лиц (новая ст. 231b у.к.), криминализация невозвращения в психиатрическое учреждение, криминализация несоблюдения обязательств назначенных судом. Изменение особенной части Уголовного кодекса не является исчерпывающим и не включает в себя новых решений, предлагаемых Комиссией Кодификации Уголовного Права. Эти правила имеют технический и порядковый характер, и это только в той мере, которая непосредственно вытекает из характера изменений особенной части Уголовного кодекса и Уголовно-исполнительного кодекса.
