Reception

The series competed for audience with Temný kraj by TV Prima and with the third series of the entertainment show Tvoje tvář má známý hlas by TV Nova. Each episode gathered around 700,000 viewers the age over 15, which was also the limit of audience accessibility of the show.

According to the reviewer of Aktuálně.cz, Martin Svoboda, the overall miniseries is "more successful than its problematic first part". He gave it a rating of 65%. According to him, it is also worthy of praise that, in contrast to the richness of motifs that are common elsewhere, "[in] Justice, one and the same motif appears repeatedly, only the backdrops differ. Thanks to this, creators can go deeper and uncover new corners of a single idea.”[14]

The series won the 2017 Czech Lion Award in the "Best Television Film or Miniseries" category.
