The subject of the article is the analysis of the model of substitute imprisonment for a fine adopted after the substantive amendment of the criminal executive law that entered into force in 2015. In the opinion of the Authors, the legislative changes at that time involuntarily contributed to a radical increase in adjudicated substitute penalties and, consequently, the costs of functioning of the justice system. The article presents also preliminary recommendations aimed at changing this state.
