Abstract

The paper examines the deviations from the principle of societas delinquere non potest in criminal legislation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The presentations connect the earlier legal regulations on the liability of legal persons for punishable actions and legislative solutions which are in force today and which relate to the liability of legal persons for criminal offences. Special attention is paid to characteristic solutions on the liability of legal persons for criminal offences contained in criminal codes, and provisions of criminal procedure code relating to procedure against a legal person. The concluding remarks underline the topicality and complexity of the debate on the liability of legal persons for criminal offences.
