Důsledky trestního řízení pro postavení zaměstnanců veřejné správy

Abstract

Laws regulating the legal status of individuals who professionally perform tasks of public administration (such as civil servants, police officials, appointed or elected representatives of administrative authorities, etc.) impose certain requirements on these individuals. One of these requirements is criminal integrity, which means that these individuals should not have a criminal conviction. The laws regulating the legal status of various categories of public employees differ in terms of whether they prohibit individuals convicted of intentional crimes from performing public tasks, or if they also include individuals convicted of criminal negligence. Furthermore, different laws handle the consequences of initiating criminal proceedings differently. This paper examines the laws that regulate the legal status of different categories of public employees and highlights the common elements and differences among these laws. The analysis concludes by outlining general rules that should be applied to all public employees.
