The Right to a Fair Trial

The aim of this theses is "The Right to a Fair Trial." I approach this topic both as a juridicial institute, where I describe it's content, and a philosophical - moral principle which should, in my opinion, run through the whole legal proceedings. (Among other things), my personal experience in a civil legal proceeding drove me to write this theses. On account of this experience I started to ask myself whether everyone is really entitled to the right to a fair trial and if the principle is really functional and running through the whole legal process or it's just a theoretical concept, more or less executed in a legal process. Comparison as objective as possible of a fair trial concept to the real state of this right's protection is one of the main aims of the thesis. Not just a confrontation between vision and reality, but also a proposal of their converging. In the first part of the theses I present a brief description of material and formal sources of information regarding the right to a fair trial from both the Czech and European point of view. In the second part I present a summary of works dealing with this topic in the Czech Republic which have been published so far. In the third part I theoretically elaborate partial principles of this right. In the fourth, and the last part of this thesis..
