Abstract

The article presents definition of plagiarism used by academic society. Authors also present legal practices used in forensic linguistic examinations to determine breaches of authorship determined in Criminal code. The analysis presented reveals that the fact of determination of breach of author rights reflects also the plagiarism, but no always determinations of plagiarism leads to the determination of offence under Criminal code. Nevertheless, authors define main features of plagiarism, used for determination of breach of authorship which may be used in other academic procedures by different Universities and related institutions.
