Abstract:

The study is devoted to the evolution of the right of appeal in the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure of 1928. The author discusses the most important stages of the work on the draft code. He demonstrates that the Polish Code of Criminal Procedure of 1928 was characterised by the principle of three-level proceedings first instance, appeal and cassation, which was an important element of procedural guarantees. It should be noted that the proposal, repeatedly presented in the literature, to abolish appeal and transform three-level proceedings into two-level proceedings was not put into practice in the inter-war period.After the end of the Second World War the legislator in communist Poland did keep the 1928 Code of Criminal Procedure in force, but new legislative acts were issued, constructing a special kind of two-level proceedings, which combined elements of appeal and cassation. Then, one of the elements of a major amendment to the Code of Criminal Procedure in 1949–1950 was the replace­ment of three-level proceedings including appeal and cassation, with two-level revision proceedings.
