The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of the convicted person, upholding the lower court decisions that denied his request for an interruption of sentence execution on family grounds. The dispute concerned a prisoner serving an eight-year imprisonment term who sought a temporary suspension of up to three months to improve his family's material situation; the lower courts and the Supreme Court found this request unfounded because the social investigation established that the family, despite financial precarity, was able to secure basic necessities through the efforts of other members, while the inmate’s release would not effectively improve their condition and his past conduct had disturbed public order. The decision relied on the legal requirement under the relevant procedural penal law that a suspension for family reasons must demonstrably contribute to improving the family's material situation, which the evidence failed to prove.

Asupra recursului de față;

În baza lucrărilor din dosar, constată următoarele:

Prin sentința penală nr. 589 din 17 septembrie 2003 a Tribunalului Timiș, s-a respins cererea condamnatului C.P.I. de întrerupere a executării pedepsei de 8 ani închisoare aplicată prin sentința nr.1203/2000 a Tribunalului Timiș, pe motive de familie, conform art. 453 lit. c) C. proc. pen. reținând că acesta nu ar putea contribui la îmbunătățirea situației materiale a familiei sale prin întreruperea executării pedepsei.

Prin decizia penală nr. 379 din 22 octombrie 2003 a Curții de Apel Timișoara, s-a respins ca nefondat apelul declarat de condamnat.

Împotriva acestei decizii, condamnatul declarat recurs, reiterând cererea inițială.

Recursul declarat nu este fondat.

Din ancheta socială efectuată în cauză, rezultă că familia condamnatului locuiește cu chirie într-un spațiu mobilat corespunzător, că are o situație materială precară, dar că fiecare membru al familiei este preocupată de a asigura cele necesare traiului, în timp ce condamnatul, permanent a tulburat liniștea publică datorită comportamentului deviant.

În consecință, corect instanțele au reținut că prin întreruperea executării pedepsei – pentru cel mult 3 luni și o singură dată – nu ar putea îmbunătăți situația materială a familiei sale, astfel că și recursul declarat urmează a fi respins ca nefondat.

PENTRU ACESTE MOTIVE

ÎN NUMELE LEGII

DECIDE

Respinge,ca nefondat,recursul declarat de condamnatul C.P.I. împotriva deciziei penale nr. 379/A din 22 octombrie 2003 a Curții de Apel Timișoara.
