Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses life imprisonment as one of the most debatable and controversial types of criminal sanctions. Criminal sanctions are criminal law instruments of response to crime. Whether this type of criminal sanction justifiably has its place in the system of criminal sanctions, whether the arguments for or against it prevail, whether they exist and what the mechanisms for reviewing the same may be, are the questions that the author of this paper deals with.
