Abstract:

The Law on Administrative Violations and Penalties (LAVP) was adopted to distinguish administrative violations from crimes, disciplinary violations, financial and civil violations. Adopted during the rapid development of socialist society, LAVP creates a unified administrative criminal procedure for all administrative bodies. It has existed and been applied for more than five decades during two different historical eras, and it has marked the beginning of codification of the matter of administrative punishment, adopting various amendments over the years. They are a big step towards the modernization of a well-drafted law, but, unfortunately, they do not solve all the issues raised, and the work on improvement and codification of administrative punishment should not stop here.

Keywords:
