Civil-law and Administrative-law Status of Penitentiary Institutions

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: The article analyses the legal status of penitentiary institutions from two interrelated perspectives: civil law and administrative law. It examines the relationship between the institution's role as a law-enforcement body vested with state authority and its participation in civil-law transactions as an independent legal entity. Drawing on the Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the Criminal Executive Code and the relevant resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers, the article addresses the institution's proprietary autonomy, entrepreneurial activity, organisational and legal form, and liability. Based on an analysis of foreign experience, including the activities of private for-profit and non-profit operators, the article puts forward proposals for improving national legislation.
