Summary/Abstract: It is a principle of Administrative-Criminal law that an act which qualifies as a minor administrative violation is discharged with a warning that a subsequent act will be sanctioned. Although different in consequences from the punishment of a criminal offence, sometimes the consequences of administrative sanction are not light for the subject either. In the explanation we will focus on current practical aspects of the problem, which are still a topic for serious discussion. The problems are in the sphere of the general legal regime in administrative sanction. At the same time, there are even more detailed issues in the special laws regarding Administrative Violations and Sanctions Act, some of which have as their genesis the general issues raised above. This is the case in the field of Commercial law, Labour law, etc. This necessitates the need to raise these issues, examine them and find appropriate solutions de lege ferenda.
