yritykselliseen

Yrityksellinen is a Finnish term that translates to "attempted" or "in an attempted manner." It is primarily used in legal and criminal contexts to describe an action that was not fully completed but was undertaken with the intention of completing it. This concept is crucial in distinguishing between a completed crime and an unsuccessful one, which can have different legal ramifications.

In Finnish criminal law, "yritys" (attempt) is a recognized legal concept. When an act is considered "yrityksellinen," it means that the perpetrator initiated the execution of a criminal offense but was prevented from completing it due to circumstances beyond their control or their own intervention. For instance, if someone tries to steal a car but is apprehended before they can start the engine, their actions would be described as attempted, or "yrityksellinen." The degree of punishment for an attempted offense is typically less severe than for a completed offense, reflecting the fact that the intended harm did not fully materialize.

The determination of whether an act is "yrityksellinen" involves assessing the perpetrator's intent and the actions taken. Finnish legal scholars and courts analyze the sequence of events to establish that the individual had a clear intention to commit the crime and had taken concrete steps towards its completion. This concept ensures that individuals are held accountable for their criminal intentions and actions, even if the ultimate goal was not achieved. The term is a specific legal descriptor used within the Finnish juridical system.
