Özet:

Since 1970s, there has been a tendency to accelerate the proceedings and to reduce the workload of the courts in German criminal procedure law. As a result, new criminal procedure law concepts have emerged. One of these concepts is the provision of the Negotiated Agreement which has long been the routine of the courts in practice, but got the legal basis in 2009 with the German Criminal Procedure Code (StPO) §257c. In order to accelerate the proceedings in the Turkish criminal procedure law, new regulations such as “rapid trial procedure” (CMK m.250) and “simple trial procedure” (CMK m.251) were introduced in the Criminal Procedure Code (CMK). The reasoning of the amendment in article 23 of the Code numbered 7188, which re-regulates the CMK m.250 and brings the “rapid trial procedure”, mentions StPO §257c because of the similarity. In this study, the concept of the “Negotiated Agreement”, which is regulated in the StPO §257c, is examined in order to contribute to the efforts to accelerate the criminal procedure.
