  • Skutkový stav
    The plaintiff requested the court to dismiss the judgment of the regional court that confirmed the decision of the Inspectorate of the Slovak Trade Inspection with the seat in Žilina for the Žilina region.

    The Inspectorate of the Slovak Trade Inspection with the seat in Žilina for the Žilina region imposed a fine in the amount of EUR 340 on the plaintiff. The plaintiff infringed general advertising requirements, as it was selling products - electronic cigarettes delivered via mail on its website www.zdravšia-cigareta.sk, which is prohibited by Act on protection of non-smokers.

    The regional court agreed with the findings of the Inspectorate of the Slovak Trade Inspection. More specifically, the regional court has dealt with the plaintiff´s arguments. These arguments were evaluated by the court as unjustified. The regional court decided that harmful conduct of the plaintiff identified by the administrative authority was duly demonstrated, and that the plaintiff is objectively responsible for breach.

    The plaintiff appealed the judgment of the regional court and claimed that this judgment had defects, which caused the judgment to be erroneous.
