Sample Slovak Judicial Examination Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Slovak Judicial Examination exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 40+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Under the Civil Dispute Code, how should a judge assess a witness statement alongside a contract and an expert report?
A.Give every expert report conclusive priority
B.Count the number of sources supporting each party
C.Evaluate each item and the evidence together, considering what emerged in the proceedings
D.Accept whichever item was submitted first
Explanation: Section 191 CSP requires evaluation of individual evidence and its connections with the other evidence. No general rule makes an expert report automatically conclusive.
2What is the court's fact-finding obligation in proceedings governed by the Civil Non-Contentious Code?
A.Determine the actual facts and take other necessary evidence even if participants did not propose it
B.Treat every unchallenged assertion as conclusively true
C.Investigate only evidence proposed by both participants
D.Apply the parties' evidentiary agreement even where the file contradicts it
Explanation: Sections 35 and 36 CMP require determination of the actual facts and necessary evidence beyond participants' proposals. This differs from treating non-contentious proceedings as purely party-controlled litigation.
3Both parents retain full parental rights and obligations, and neither has been restricted by a court. Who holds responsibility for the child's care and representation?
A.Only the parent currently providing day-to-day care, regardless of any court order
B.Both parents, exercising their responsibilities in the child's interests
C.Only the parent who first proposes the particular legal act
D.Only the parent at whose address the child is registered
Explanation: The Family Act assigns parental rights and obligations to both parents. Their exercise must protect the child's interests, and particular disputes or restrictions require the applicable legal procedure.
4An employer seeks damages under the Labour Code's general employee-liability rule. The case does not concern entrusted values or lost entrusted objects. Who must prove the employee's fault?
A.The employee must disprove fault in every employment case
B.The labour inspectorate must prove fault before any civil claim
C.Fault is irrelevant whenever damage occurred at work
D.The employer must prove the employee's fault
Explanation: Section 179 places the burden of proving fault on the employer under the general rule. Special regimes for entrusted values and objects must be distinguished from this claim.
5In a CMP proceeding, all participants agree that a transfer occurred in June, but an authenticated document in the file records July. May the court simply adopt June as an agreed fact?
A.Yes, unanimity always binds a non-contentious court
B.Yes, unless the prosecutor objects
C.No; agreed assertions can never be used under CMP
D.No; agreed assertions may be adopted only without doubts about their truth and without conflict with evidence
Explanation: Section 37 CMP permits adoption of agreed factual assertions only where the court has no doubts about their truth and they do not conflict with the evidence. The contradictory document requires examination rather than automatic acceptance.
6Co-owners cannot agree on settlement, and physical division of the property is not reasonably possible. A co-owner wants the property and can compensate the others; no special reason against settlement is established. What statutory method comes before ordering a sale?
A.Assign the property to one or more co-owners for appropriate compensation
B.Refuse every settlement unless all co-owners consent to the same method
C.Assign it to the interested co-owner without compensation because physical division is impossible
D.Sell it merely because physical division is impossible
Explanation: Section 142 of the Civil Code provides assignment for appropriate compensation where division is not reasonably possible. Sale follows if none of the co-owners wants the property, subject to the statute's other safeguards.
7The dovolací súd quashes a civil decision and remands the case. What is the effect of its legal opinion on the court deciding the remanded matter?
A.The receiving court may disregard it solely because the judge prefers another interpretation
B.It becomes binding only after a second cassation in the same case
C.The court receiving the remanded case is bound by that legal opinion
D.It becomes binding only if both parties agree
Explanation: Section 455 CSP makes the cassation court's legal opinion binding on the court to which the case is remanded. The receiving court must apply that opinion while conducting the remaining proceedings.
8An indivisible property would ordinarily be assigned for compensation or sold in judicial co-ownership settlement. The court establishes reasons worthy of special consideration under Civil Code § 142(2). Which conclusion follows?
A.Those reasons only change how sale proceeds are divided
B.The court does not dissolve and settle co-ownership through assignment for compensation or sale
C.The reasons automatically extinguish the claimant's ownership share
D.The court must assign the property without compensation
Explanation: Section 142(2) expressly prevents settlement by assignment or sale where reasons worthy of special consideration exist. This exception does not confiscate a share or authorize uncompensated assignment.
9A prokurista has no express authorization concerning immovable property. Which transaction lies outside the ordinary scope of prokúra under the Commercial Code?
A.Selling the enterprise's land
B.Ordering stock for the enterprise
C.Signing an ordinary business supply contract
D.Handling a routine enterprise receivable
Explanation: Prokúra covers legal acts occurring in the operation of an enterprise, including acts otherwise requiring special authority. Alienating or encumbering immovable property requires express authorization in the grant.
10Founders execute an s.r.o.'s founding instrument. Under the ordinary Commercial Code rule, when does the company itself come into existence?
A.On execution of the founding instrument
B.On full payment of the registered capital alone
C.On entry in the Commercial Register
D.On obtaining tax registration alone
Explanation: Founding the company and its legal emergence are distinct events. The ordinary rule ties emergence to entry in the Commercial Register.

Slovak Judicial Examination: Suggested Study Strategy

1Draft reasoned decisions from complete case files.
2Use the official written and oral lists to study subjects outside this focused bank.
3Explain why each distractor fails under the applicable Slovak rule.
4Check the current statutory versions before applying procedural periods.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does passing these MCQs replace the written decisions?

No. JA SR requires criminal and non-criminal decisions and oral assessment. Practise those forms independently using official materials.

Who may take OJS?

Statutory routes have different service, age and nomination conditions. JA SR describes a higher court officer route requiring three continuous years and age 30. Prosecutor-trainee preparation is normally three years but can be shortened under statutory conditions. Check the applicable route and nominating authority.

Is the exam free?

The checked official examination materials did not confirm a candidate fee. State funding of the Academy alone does not establish a universal €0 examination fee.

What languages and weights are verified?

Official published question materials are in Slovak; no English examination option was confirmed. The five practice sections sample the official oral areas equally. Official test selection must reflect practical agenda, but no numerical percentage blueprint was identified. This focused bank does not cover the entire official scope.
