Zagadnienie prawne
Czy skazanie karne skarżącej za dyskryminację było przewidywalne w rozumieniu art. 7 Konwencji o ochronie praw człowieka i podstawowych wolności?Ratio decidendi
Trybunał stwierdził naruszenie art. 7 Konwencji, co oznacza, że uznał, iż skazanie skarżącej za dyskryminację nie było wystarczająco przewidywalne. Zgodnie z art. 7, prawo karne musi być sformułowane z wystarczającą precyzją, aby umożliwić jednostce przewidzenie konsekwencji swoich działań. Brak przewidywalności w tym przypadku doprowadził do naruszenia zasady nullum crimen, nulla poena sine lege.Stan faktyczny
Skarżąca, Carole Delga, obywatelka Francji urodzona w 1971 roku, pełni funkcję Prezydenta Regionalnej Rady Oksytanii. Została skazana za dyskryminację wobec podmiotu prawnego, gminy Beaucaire, na podstawie artykułów 225-1 i 432-7 francuskiego Kodeksu Karnego. Skarżąca zaskarżyła to skazanie, twierdząc, że było ono nieprzewidywalne.Rozstrzygnięcie

Delga v. France (application no. 38998/20)

the Regional Council of Occitanie and was convicted of discrimination against a legal entity, the
municipality of Beaucaire, under Articles 225-1 and 432-7 of the Criminal Code.
Relying on Article 7 (no punishment without law), the applicant complains about her conviction for
discrimination, arguing that it was not foreseeable.
Violation of Article 7
Just satisfaction: The applicant did not submit a claim for just satisfaction for pecuniary and non-
pecuniary damage.

Under Articles 43 and 44 of the Convention, Chamber judgments are not final. During the three-month period following a Chamber
judgment’s delivery, any party may request that the case be referred to the Grand Chamber of the Court. If such a request is made, a
panel of five judges considers whether the case deserves further examination. In that event, the Grand Chamber will hear the case and
deliver a final judgment. If the referral request is refused, the Chamber judgment will become final on that day. Under Article 28 of the
Convention, judgments delivered by a Committee are final.
Once a judgment becomes final, it is transmitted to the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe for supervision of its execution.
Further information about the execution process can be found here: www.coe.int/t/dghl/monitoring/execution
The European Court of Human Rights was set up in Strasbourg by the Council of Europe member
States in 1959 to deal with alleged violations of the 1950 European Convention on Human Rights.
