Abstract

MARIA LOURDES, Ramírez Torrado. The Interpretation Criterium of the "Non Bis Idem" Principle Provided in Article 45.3 of Spain Constitution. Ius et Praxis [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.1, pp.287-302. ISSN 0718-0012.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-00122010000100010.

With respect to the constitutional reading of the principle we propose a complementary and diverse reading different from what has been presented to date by constitutional and scientific doctrine, which insist on deriving constitutional support from article 25.Setting the former aside, there is a constitutional disposition which considers tacitly the "non bis in idem" by establishing a criterion to determine what the sanction or the procedure is to be imposed without violating prohibition "bis in idem". We refer to the presence of an interpretation clause of the "bis in idem" principle provided in article 45.3, which considers the prevalence of Penal Law over Administrative Law.

Keywords : Administrative Sanctions; Sanctioning Administrative Law.
