Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the dissenting opinion in the criminal proceedings and its importance in imposing life imprisonment sentence.

He analyses the standards for administering life imprisonment sentence defined by the European Court of Human Rights, the Supreme Court and the appeals courts. On the example of the decisions of general courts, the author discusses the reasons for life imprisonment sentences, the grounds of judgements in dissenting opinions and their common, converging elements.
