Persoana juridică şi locul săvârşirii infracţiunii//The legal entities and the place of the crime

Abstract

The study aims to analyze the manner in which the place of the crime should be established in the case of acts committed by legal persons, in the three specific ways: in the object of activity, interest or name of the legal entity. The discussions start from the way in which the guilt of the legal entity is outlined and from the relationship between the legal person and the natural person, human substrate of its criminal liability. Both generic and specific issues will be addressed by reference to categories of offenses (such as those committed online) or the specificities of certain offenses in the case of legal entities. The paper also contains a few remarks on the principles specific to the application of criminal law in space, as well as on the work of the European Public Prosecutor's Office in the case of legal entities, which is transnational and dependent on the place of the crime.
