The article elaborated the need for the police to thoroughly deal with issues of misdemeanours as a smaller scale offences. Having in mind that the ratio of the number and variety of misdemeanour cases and criminal offences is 12: 1, the need arises for providing a sound theoretical basis for the field of investigation of misdemeanours, which currently does not exist or is insufficiently provided.

With the provocative suggestion of the course title "Misdemeanour Criminal Investigation", the issue of the more precise definition of criminal investigation and its full affirmation has arisen.
