The Dutch Criminal Justice System

If the police submitted the case to the prosecutor, instead of summoning him and submitting the case to the court, there is also the right to issue a penalty order to the defendant. Penalty orders will gradually replace the punishment / transactions of settlement agreed in the past between prosecutors and defendants. The purpose of this is to reduce the number of offenses that have not been punished. If the case is classified as a crime, another procedure will be issued. The definition of crime in the Netherlands includes violent crimes such as serious life infringement and serious crimes against property.

In this article, I will study the procedures in the criminal justice system. Before laying the foundation for this work, I will briefly introduce the contents of the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system is a collection of laws and social institutions that enforce the criminal law, while observing a series of clear procedural rules and restrictions. And Dignan, J. (2007) The procedure in the criminal system has already been stated as "starting only when crime is reported to the police" (page 2). When a crime occurs, the main content of the relevant criminal justice system is the law enforcement agency, otherwise it is the police. The police 's top priority is to investigate the crime and make an appropriate arrest. The power of the police is dominated by the states in which they are engaged and engaged.

In the United States, criminal management and judicial administration are handled by the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system consists of three major and distinguishable elements of police, court, and disciplinary action. These components are also called subsystems. From this point of view, the components of the criminal justice system are considered to be interrelated, interdependent and working to achieve a unified goal. The prospect of this criminal trial tends to focus on how the incident flows in the system, causing a chain reaction when an incident is transferred from one component to another component. For example, the behavior of the street police affected the work of the court, and the decision of the judge of the court affected the operation of the prison and the prison.

The police occupy a special position in the criminal justice system. Act of the executive officers of the law affects the function of the entire criminal justice system, and only affects the police and does not say the "gatekeeper" of the system: "In many cases, these people's condemnation perpetrator It is the first contact and what happens to make what the position of some very important decisions is to decide to make the most of the police ...... in the American criminal justice Journey of criminal suspected maze "(Alpert and Danham, 1997: 11)
