The study obtained several results, the most important of which is we find that the text of Article 17 – Penal Code- talks about the replacement of the death penalty in life imprisonment, only before the issuance of the final judgment, but in the case of text 358- Code of Criminal Procedure , it is after the issuance of a final judgment in the case, then the execution is carried out after three months.
