The “Testing” institute is relatively recent in the Italian legal system. It dates back to law 67/2014 which changed the penal code. For some minor crimes, the possibility for the suspect (or for the accused, if you already find ourselves in the procedural phase) provides, also on the proposal of the public prosecutor, to request the suspension of the procedure. In return, the suspect or defendant will have to carry out some public utility works For a period that will be defined later. If the investigating judge were to accept the prosecutor’s request, the procedure would end with a sentence of extinction of all the crimes hypothesized against John Elkann.
