Abstract

The article considers the question which court is empowered under Polish law to stay a sentence of imprisonment if the offender submits an application to serve his sentence with the use of the electronic monitoring system. It concludes that the appropriate court empowered to take such decisions is the penitentiary court, not the court of first instance.

Keywords:

electronic monitoring system; stay of sentence; imprisonment.
