Procedure for the Imposition of Administrative Penalties

Abstract

The study provides a doctrinal definition of the proceedings for imposing administrative penalties. It contains a description of the procedure for imposing administrative penalties by administrative penalty jurisdictions under the general procedural legislation; under special laws and codes. The scientific study deals with the question of who are the participants, subjects, and parties in the proceedings for imposing administrative penalties by administrative penalty jurisdictions. It examines how the proceedings themselves develop with the relevant procedural actions before, during, and after the imposition of the penalty. It presents the basic essence of the legal act imposing the administrative penalty (penalty order) according to administrative law doctrine. It summarizes the distinctions existing in theory between the penalty order, the individual administrative act, and the sentence. The presentation presents hypotheses in which the administrative penalty authority does not rule as an administrative penalty jurisdiction. It traces various special proceedings for the imposition of administrative penalties by a court. All theoretical issues discussed are reflected through the prism of jurisprudence.
