Abstract: Relapse is one of the causes of punishment aggravation because the offender persists in criminal activities. Relapse and recidivism constitute elements of study not only in criminal law but also in other sciences such as criminology, sociology of deviance etc. Relapse is one of the worst forms of crime manifestation because it expresses an enduring and lasting tendency of individuals to intentionally harm the social values protected by the criminal law. It is the evidence that the offender continues to ignore the law after he/she was tried and convicted of a crime and even after he/she executed a penalty, and that he/she did not draw the corresponding conclusions and that he/she did not change his/her behavior despite previous experiences.
