Abstract

The significance of the sentenced person's liability has been investigated. It applies to a convicted person in prison for a term of imprisonment, as an integral component of the educational influence on such person to correct and re-socialize him. The society is accustomed to perceive the State Criminal Enforcement Service of Ukraine as an institution, which by its function is intended to serve the sentences of a court, but the legislation also imposes on it the task of correcting and re-socializing the sentenced person using the methods and means of educational influence that go hand in hand with the execution of punishment. The liability of the convicted person is at the same time a criterion for evaluating the use of remedies and re-socialization and acts as an element of the same educational influence. Therefore, it is problematic for staff members of the Penal Institution to realize the need to apply the disciplinary and material responsibility of prisoners in the exercise of educational influence differently. The content of the article reveals the need to apply the liability of the convicted person as a normative-legal category, through the lens of educational influence on the convicts. It encourages creation of appropriate methodological recommendations and improving the mechanism of their application in the practical activity of the units of the Penal Institution. Аnd the need for appropriate changes at the legislative level regarding the mandatory rules on compensation for material damage caused to a sentenced institution while serving a sentence, which in turn will help to consolidate the foundation of one of the methods of educational influence. It is noted that the purpose of educational influence through material liability is realizing by the isolated person the fact of wrongdoing, legal and material consequences, as well as rethinking his act. This is important because convicts are not required to compensate for material damage. Therefore, there is a need to go to court for material damages, which can lead to a loss of value and "demand" for such educational influence from the staff of the institution.
