Abstract

In this article, we present the most common cases of competition between legal norms in Slovak civil
court practice. In some of these cases, the court practice has decided and established the precedence
of certain norms over others. However, a theoretical explanation of methods for resolving competition
between norms is absent in Slovak legal methodology. Therefore, in this article, we summarize German
theory, which clarifies the types of competition in law and provides methodological guidance for their
resolution.
