Summary/Abstract: The provisions of the Covid Act cannot be applauded for their systemic nature and the comprehensibility of the legal language. In the paper, three examples are discussed: first, the accessibility of the aid guaranteed by the so-called anti-crisis shields to foreign entrepreneurs; second, the justifiability of nuancing the premises of granting state protective benefits during the Covid epidemic (especially in the context of the usage of the expressions “identical” and “the same”); third, an example related to the identification of the forms of the activities of public administration, in the context of the recourse to the law as a means of protecting the rights of an entrepreneur. These examples serve to show the problems caused by faulty legislation.
