By this contribution, the author would like to provide a historical insight into application of these principles in the Czech and Slovak criminal proceedings since the days of Austro-Hungarian Empire, through the unified regulation in times of common state, until the present form and development tendencies of an examined criminal law issue within the individual legal regulations.
