Brief comment on some impediments in the effective implementation of the new code of criminal procedure

摘要

The reform of the judiciary system in Romania, in strict correlation with the need for changes in the legislation, is imposed by the assuming of rights and obligations arising from the accession to the European Union, as well as by the imperativeness of an effective functioning of the institutions in the field. The adoption of Law No. 202/2010 (small justice reform), followed by the entry into force of the new codes (civil and civil procedure) constitute important steps taken with regard to the modernization of the legal framework to meet the needs and expectations of society, resulting of course in its natural evolution. The entry into force of the future codes - Criminal and Criminal Procedure - estimated for the date of February 01, 2014, must not happen anyway, and under any conditions; it is also not sensible to the pressures resulting from the implementation of the Cooperation and Verification Mechanism of Justice, considering that the impact that the new regulations must produce have as essential aim the creation of a modern regulatory framework that would respond to the imperatives of an effective judiciary, adapted to social expectations and not the upheaval of the whole criminal justice system in our country.
