amending the provisions of the Decree of the President of the Republic on the punishment of certain offences against national honour.
The Constitutional National Assembly of the Czechoslovak Republic decided on this law:
Paragraph 3, last sentence of the Decree of the President of the Republic of 27 October 1945, No 138 Coll., on the punishment of certain offences against national honour, as amended by the Law of 16 May 1946, No 123 Coll., is amended as follows:
"However, criminal proceedings must be initiated before the expiry of the decree of the President of the Republic of 19 June 1945, No 16 Coll., on the punishment of Nazi criminals, traitors and their helpers, and on extraordinary folk courts, as amended by the laws supplementing it and amending it."
It is a civil duty to accept and serve as a member of the Commission of the District National Committee, exercising criminal jurisdiction (Criminal Commission Finding). If a member of the criminal commission finds this obligation without serious reasons, in particular by not showing up for proceedings without an adequate excuse, even if he has been duly served, or if, without the agreement of the President of the Commission before the end of the proceedings, he is absent, the President of the District National Committee shall impose a fine of up to 5 000 Kčs or a prison within five days and, as the case may be, compensation for the costs of the mistrial. This finding may be appealed to the Regional National Committee within 15 days.
(1) In the criminal proceedings initiated by the District National Committee for Criminal Procedure pursuant to Article 1 of Decree No 138 / 1945 Coll. and on 4 May 1947 in the first storehouse not completed, the application of the Public Prosecutor is continued by the District Court, exercising jurisdiction in criminal matters, under the provisions of Title XXVI of the Criminal Code and the provisions of this Title supplementing. In doing so he will apply the substantive provisions of Decree No. 138 / 1945 Coll.
(2) The proceedings shall be deemed to have been initiated by the delivery of the summons to the defendant; If I do not know his whereabouts, it may be delivered by an edition.
(3) A conviction for such administrative offences shall not be entered in the criminal record.
(4) The sentence of public reprimand shall be enforced by the fact that the final judgment imposing the sentence shall be published in the municipality of the sentenced person, following the case in the municipality where the offence was committed.
This Act shall take effect on the day of its publication. The law applies only in Czech and Moravian-Silesian countries; It shall be carried out by the Minister for the Interior and the Minister for Justice.
