Summary/Abstract: Misdemeanors are often said to represent the gateway to criminal liability. From that point of view, the purpose of punishing someone for a misdemeanor becomes especially important in fields such as environmental protection, bearing in mind the irreversible, sometimes incalculable damage that can occur as a consequence of a criminal offense. By imposing liability for misdemeanors, further illegal activity and possibly more serious damage can be prevented. Environmental protection is regulated through a large number of laws and bylaws, with special emphasis on the implementation of the Law on Environmental Protection as a systemic law in this field. On the other hand, the analysis of the application of sector specific laws, which regulate specific approaches to environmental protection in more detail, deserves attention precisely because of its specificity and a particular focus on certain forms of violations. Therefore, the focus of this paper is sector-specific protection of the environment against noise and research on how to apply regulations in practice.
