Abstract

The new Romanian Criminal Procedure Code, ruling from the 1st of February 2014, brings a new philosophy regarding the judicial authorities that may order preventive detention within criminal investigation proceedings. The previous regulations simply enumerated the judicial authorities responsible for deciding preventive detention while the new law describes the judicial duties of these authorities, allowing the lawmakers much more flexibility in designating the authorities in charge with preventive detention.
