Summary/Abstract: The author discusses the issue of accelerated proceedings in petty offences cases. She stresses the fact that the examination of a case in the accelerated mode depends on the presence of special conditions of these proceedings and the free decision of the body entitled to initiate court proceedings by its motion for punishment. The paper contains the analysis of those solutions which, on the basis of Art. 57 of the Code of Proceedings in Petty Offences Cases get especially simplified within the framework of accelerated proceedings.
