The purpose is to increase the inquest function of Prosecutor's Office. Another idea is to transfer the examining magistrates to the Prosecutor's office without conducting a competition. It is also foreseen that the prosecutor should be able to propose or even directly to define a fee in cases of light penalties' conviction. Thus, the case will not be up before the court, the court will only control the issuance of a judicial act.
Furthermore, attempts to deal with another problem have been made - in order to delay a case attorneys may state an illness. Judges now shall be able to alarm bars if lawyers have pronounced ill on a case and appear healthy on another case. In such situations bars should start a discipline procedure.
