Abstract

Macedonian Government in 2014 proposed the Article 39, paragraph 3 of the Criminal Code
to be changed, i.e. the sentence determination should be carried out by the court according
to the Rule-book on the manner of determination of the sentences (January), i.e. Law on
the determination of the type and duration of sentences (December). Although arguments
were given as a support to the proposed changes, the Constitutional Court in 2017 abolished
the Criminal Code’s Article 39, paragraph 3 and the said Law. Having in mind the above,
the Paper shall analyse the Government’s arguments versus Constitutional Court’s decision,
from the aspect of lawfulness, individualisation of sentences, sentences proportional to the
committed criminal act, uniformity of sentencing policy and free evaluation of evidence.
