Summary/Abstract: The article includes comments on the nomenclature used by the legislature body in the Code of Criminal Law to determine authoritative statements of judical body. The discussion focused on the meaning of key terms of judical body such as „decision”, „ruling” and „settl ement”. It also indicated the content of positive and negative settlements by the Code of Criminal Law. Moreover, it assessed the consequences in case if a court decision was different to the one resulting from the act. The purpose of this publication was an attempt to answer the question on the importance of terminology which the legislature body used to determine executive statements of judical bodies and what consequences would bear a flexibility for a judical body in application of the process introducted by the legislature nomenclature.
