Slovenian criminal law has undergone many changes in the recent decades. It faces a foray of administrative solutions on both the substantive, procedural and institutional levels. On the other hand, many features of criminal law are being introduced into administrative law, which is gradually and covertly evolving into a quasi-punitive system.
The master's thesis focuses on the procedural aspects of the foray of administrative legal solutions and the interplay of criminal and administrative law. It first presents the ideal delineation between the two branches of law, and then analyses three manifestations of intertwining, namely the takeover of administrative institutes into criminal proceedings and vice versa, new hybrid solutions and una via solutions. With some institutes of Slovene regulation, it clearly illustrates and reinforces the knowledge of legal theory. In the final part, the master’s thesis summarizes the reasons that led to the situation of the foray of administrative solutions into criminal procedural law and the foray of criminal solutions into administrative procedural law, and finally summarizes the positive and negative aspects of the interplay that the legislator will need to consider in case of the updating of the existing legislation.
