Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the institute of liberation, that is, exempting a legal person from a liability for a misdemeanor in the event of a breach of law, but the offender has made every effort to avoid this, the purpose of which is to mitigate the consequences of strict strict liability. It is pointed out that this is a measure which can be taken into account only in exceptional cases, and any demonstration of the existence of such reasons lies with the accused of the offense. Attention is focused on cases where the law excludes liberation and under which circumstances it may be considered.
