[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1697541036290{padding-top: 10px !important;}”]In a constitutional state, criminal law serves to protect individual legal interests (e.g. health, assets, etc.) and the legal interests of the general public. The repressive sanctioning of certain, illegal behavior in criminal law is intended to encourage citizens to adhere to the legal system, which establishes the common rules of the community. <\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1697541049797{padding-top: 10px !important;}”]The main penalties recognized by criminal law are imprisonment and a fine. However, such harsh, repressive punishment by the state should always be the ultima ratio (the last resort) to bring about legal peace. Not every anti-social behavior is therefore a criminal offense, but only serious legal violations for which civil sanctions (e.g. compensation) or administrative law (e.g. fines) are not sufficient.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=”no” css=”.vc_custom_1697800406404{padding-top: 30px !important;}” el_class=”all-least-pages”][vc_column][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1697455935676{padding-bottom: 10px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]\n

    Criminal law is regulated primarily in the Criminal Code (StGB), which, in addition to the general provisions for criminal law, standardizes a large number of criminal offenses. However, crimes are not only found in the Criminal Code, but also in numerous other laws such as the Narcotics Act, Medicines Act, etc., so-called secondary criminal law. Regulations on criminal procedure (formal criminal law) can be found in particular in the Code of Criminal Procedure (StPO) and the Court Procedure Act (GVG).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
