Criminal offenc/se consisting of a nexus of repeated acts Explanation: Full version: Singly indictable, criminal offenc/se consisting of a nexus of multiple, repeat acts. Subject to contextualisation and compare Tom West III's ES>AmE law & business glossary entries: delito continuado - not really safe to assume it is on all fours with the term queried > crime consisting of a series of acts or committed by a contiuing or ongoing cousre of conduct. 'A cashier stealing small amounts from the till every day is chargeable with one count of theft for the total haul'. Synonym: delito de tracto sucesivo. delito continuo - crime with conintuing, lingering effects, as opposed to an 'instantaneous', one-off crime. Example sentence(s):

peer agreement (net): +2continuous offence Explanation: Continuing and Continuous Offences There is very real distinction between the two classifications and they must not be confused. Continuing offences A continuing offence is one criminal activity that lasts over a period of time. Conspiracy is an example of a continuing offence which can be said to be committed by those involved throughout the planning stage. A continuing offence can be indicted as taking place '... between ...' or on '... divers days between ...' two dates. If you ask yourself whether the total activity amounts to one offence only and the answer is 'yes', then it is likely that the offence is a continuing one. Top of page Continuous offences The concept of a continuous offence is a legal device that permits the charging of a series of offences of the same type in one count. This applies where it is not possible to state with certainty which particular activity occurred at a particular time. For example, in R v Cain (1983) Crim.L.R.802 the defendant had been found in possession of a quantity of goods stolen from his employer over a period of time with no evidence to establish when each item had been taken. There was nothing wrong with charging all of the items in a single count. A continuous offence should be charged as occurring '... between ...' two dates. The use of '... on divers days ...' is not appropriate and may give rise to an application to quash for duplicity. It may be permissible to charge a number of individually identifiable similar charges as one overall count, where the offences involve the same process and the defence case does not distinguish between differing instances. See Barton v DPP [2001] EWHC Admin 223. Care will be needed if such a course is taken. See Joinder below. Delito Continuado Delito Continuado. Aquel en el que el autor, obedeciendo a una misma resolución y configurando un mismo delito, se lleva a efecto mediante una serie de actos idénticamente vulneratorios. La ley no da relevancia a esos actos (sí fuera así, serían varios delitos). Se caracteriza por la unidad de resolución o de propósito de un mismo sujeto que ha cometido una serie de acciones constitutivas de ejecuciones parciales de un solo delito. Por ejemplo: Él que roba una suma de dinero guardada en un lugar, llevándose centavo a centavo o billete a billete cada día hasta reunir una suma considerable. Otro ejemplo de delito continuado quien introduce una partida de contrabando repartiéndola en varias expediciones; él que provoca un envenenamiento aplicando dosis sucesivas de algún producto. En el delito permanente hay una sola acción que se prolonga en el tiempo, en el delito continuado hay pluralidad de acciones que configuran todas un solo delito perfecto. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2015-04-27 08:42:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- this UK terminology by the way, it may be different for US -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2015-04-27 08:55:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- continuing offence would be delito permanente http://jorgemachicado.blogspot.co.uk/2010/09/cdfe.html http://www.cps.gov.uk/legal/d_to_g/drafting_the_indictment/#... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2015-04-27 08:58:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- El delito continuado. Continuado es aquel delito consistente en varias infracciones, que por atacar bienes jurídicos idénticos y realizarse aprovechando una misma circunstancia u ocasión, se pena de forma diferente a otros grupos de infracciones. Por ejemplo, un sujeto que realiza diversas estafas en un corto espacio de tiempo mediante la realización de diversas compras en establecimientos con tarjeta de crédito falsa. El delito permanente se diferencia del delito continuado, en que en el primero hay una sola acción que se prolonga en el tiempo, mientras que en el segundo hay pluralidad de acciones que configuran cada una un delito perfecto. Según la previsión legal -art.131.2 CP- en el delito continuado los términos de la prescripción se computan desde el día en que se realizó la última infracción. El delito permanente se diferencia del delito continuado, en que en el primero hay una sola acción que se prolonga en el tiempo, mientras que en el segundo hay pluralidad de acciones que configuran cada una un delito perfecto http://cj-worldnews.com/spain/index.php/es/derecho-31/derech... |
