(3) C. pr. pen. The civilly responsible party can be introduced, according to art 21, alin. (1), C.p.p. as modified through CCR Decision up until the end of the criminal persecution by the person in right according to the civil law, in order to be able to formulate requests and to raise exceptions in the preliminary chamber. So, the civil party, as the person in right by the civil law, can ask to be introduced the civilly responsible party by the end of the criminal prosecution.
