financial costs related to its operation and court trial procedures by using archival documents of the Liptov county, mainly the county court.

As for other categories of criminal, identifying a pattern for such a small number of cases is complicated. However, in general, their clothing contained mostly elements typical of their status or profession. Still, it is clear that even the clothes of the lower social groups were not uniform.
information about the imprisonment of the robber Juraj Jánošík in the
Vranovo manor house in Palúdzka (now part of the town Liptovský
Mikuláš). The Slovak romantic poet Samo Chalupka was the first to put
forward this theory, which was a story told in his family for generations.
However, the court practice in the Liptov county, as well as in the town
of Svätý Mikuláš shows that the possibility of imprisoning a robber in
Vranovo is improbable. The county courts had been held in the town for
years before, so the county had to have a background here. In addition, the
town prison has been documented in Svätý Mikuláš since the end of the
17th century, The county could also use it, and in the later period we have
proof of this.
The offenders were held in prison. We dont know exactly where this prisons where located, but according to archival documents they were in Svätý Mikuláš, Hybe, Ružomberok, Bobrovec, Vrbica and Sielnica.
Execution sites were used for capital punishments. According to archival documents and names of the local places we know about five execution sites: gallows Šibeničky near the town of Vrbica, gallows in Nemecká Ľupča, gallows in Ružomberok and Trnovec. A disposable execution site was built near the village of Dúbrava.
Pillories were used in case of humiliating punishments. We know about four pillories in Liptov county. All of them were located in the main square. They were in Ružomberok, Nemecká Ľupča, Svätý Mikuláš and Trnovec. The last one preserved to this day.
Churches, town squares or houses of a local knackers were used as a places for punishments too.
Az előadás Liptó vármegye területén található helyszínekkel foglalkozik, ahol az igazságszolgáltatást és bűntetésvégrehajtást gyakorolták a középkorban és újkorban. Azokra a helyszínekre fókuszál ahol megtalálhatóak voltak vagy még mindig megtalálhatóak az akasztófák, bitófák, pellengérek, bírósági termek és más erre a célra létrehozott épitmények (mint pl. a templomok, amelyek elótt végrehajtották a büntetéseket, stb.). Azt az időszakot térképezi fel, amelyben ezek a helyszínek a bűntetés céljaira voltak felhaszndlva, illetve az azon építmények sorsát, amelyek már elvesztették addigi szerepüket.
I tried to fully illustrate the state of the town forests based on the most extensive report from a forest inspector from 1822. In the report, the forests are divided into three divisions. It implies that the majority of the mentioned locations were in protection, but in many of them illegal logging was taking place. We can find only limited notes on locations with legal logging, or locations damaged by strong wind.
A serious issue concerning the Ružombetok forests was the illegal logging. People would de it on Sunday or at night, when the guarding rangers werent in the forests.
Another significant issue concerning forests was the tree bark peeling. This was done mainly by shepherds, who used the bark as roof covering on their huts. The tree bark would also peel off for different reasons. This kind of damage could lead to drying out, so the magistrate would order to chop them down urgently.
In a small way, we can register forest damage caused by strong wind or wild animals (mainly bears).
Apart from forests, the forest inspectors were also in charge of guarding the town fields and meadows. When the fields were under their surveillance, people weren't allowed to graze their cattle on them. The guarded field would be marked by small branches.
Die Holznutzung in Rosenberg/Ružomberok beaufsichtigten einige Stadtangestellte wie ein Waldkassenwart, Waldinspektor und Wildheger. Selten erschienen auch Forster.
Auf möglichst komplexe Art und Weise wird im vorliegenden Beitrag angestrebt, den Stand der Stadtwälder auf Grund des umfassendsten Berichts des Waldinspektors aus dem Jahr 1822 darzustellen. Im
Bericht waren die Wälder in drei Divisionen geteilt. Aus dem Bericht
geht hervor, dass die meisten von der erwähnten Lokalitäten geschützt
wurden, aber in vielen von ihnen erfolgte eine illegale Holznutzung.
Nur in kleinem Maße wird an die Lokalitäten mit legaler Holznutzung,
eventuell an die durch starken Wind beschädigten Lokalitäten erinnert.
Ein ernsthaftes Problem der Rosenberger Wälder war so die illegale Holznutzung. Die Menschen begingen sie oft sonntags oder nachts,
wenn in Wäldern keine Wache haltenden Heger waren.
Ein weiteres wichtiges Problem der Wälder war das Entrinden der
Bäume. Dies machten vor allem die Schäfer, welche die Rinde als Dachbedeckung für ihre Almhütten nutzten. Die Bäume konnten auch aus anderen Gründen entrindet werden. So beschädigte Bäume konnten
nämlich schnell austrocknen, und so ordnete der Magistrat gewöhnlich
ihre schnelle Abholzung an.
In kleinem Maße erinnert man sich noch an die Waldbeschädigung, die durch starken Wind oder von Wildtieren (vor allem Baren) verursacht wurde.
Neben den Wäldern waren die Waldinspektoren auch für die Aufsicht über die Waldblößen und -schläge verantwortlich. Die Waldblößen
wurden gewöhnlich auch geschützt. Damals durften die Ortsbewohner
hier keine Tiere weiden lassen. Die geschützten Waldblößen wurden
mit Zweigen (sog. „chvojky“) markiert.
period his activity was focused on the research of caves of the Slovak Karst, especially the Domica Cave, where he discovered the mineral brushite. It was the first recorded occurrence of this mineral in Czechoslovakia. During his work in the Domica cave, Vojtech Benický, its administrator, significantly helped him. Kašpar was a member of the Karst Commission of the Czechoslovak Tourists Club, which carried out research in Slovak caves, but also built a museum at the Domica Cave. During the war his contacts with Slovakia were interrupted, but during the post-war period he carried out several researches in the Demänovská Cave of Freedom and the Domica Cave.
Liptov. And since the majority of fires was caused by human, magistrates were trying to avoid it by various regulations. Usual
punishment for carelessness in the handling of fire was 12 guldens.
From all cases of arson the highest number is unintentional arson.
Usually magistrates were punishing it by mulct or whipping.
Punishments for intentional arson were more stritc. If court found
person guilty, he was facing the death penalty. Smoking was
widespread during modern times, which has been behind many of the
fires. Magistrates were fighting against this by using the regulations.

However, the religious crimes in this period were very irregular. There have been periods with complete absence of these cases and periods when there were more cases discussed at the Court.
The judges have decided on the basis of the legal articles summarized in the Corpus Juris Hungarici statute. Whether it was the Royal Decree, the Tripartitum by Stephen Verbőczy, or the Latin translation of the Austrian legal collection Praxis criminalis.
Evangelical Lyceum in Banská Bystrica and Sopron, where he also attended an institute for education of teachers. In 1904 he started to work as a teacher in the village Pivnica but in the following year he held a teaching position in Štrba. In 1919 he became a school inspector for the Liptovský Svätý Mikuláš district and next year also a manager of the state schools in Liptovský Svätý Mikuláš. He worked in education until his early retirement. In addition he deserved much development of tourism. In 1911 he wrote the book The Guide to the Tatras (Sprievodca po Tatrách), in 1919 he co-founded the Tatra Tourist Association and in 1921 also the tourist magazine Krásy Slovenska (Beauties of Slovakia). In addition, he actively participated in the life of several associations (Sokol, the Association of Demänovské Caves, The Singing Choir
of Slovak Teachers ...), he was the author of the textbooks, the translator. During the world war II he joined the resistance. He died in 1963.
Liptov county court in the 18th century, who participated in the theft, how
individual theft took place and how county court were punishing these acts.
the work 1s based on archival matenal, namely communal files, coming from
activities of the Liptov county court. Through testmomes, interrogations and
judgments work points to few facts, which have been found. Among thieves
were peasants, to a lesser extent servants, vagrants, shepherds, gypsies and
noblemen. They were stealing mostly solo and only in one village or thereabouts. Organized groups appears in a mmonity of cases. Among the stolen
items most prevalent food, clothing, cloths and money, to a lesser extent were
stolen various tools, anumals and other things. the most common punishment
for thieves was whipping. Expulsion from the county, prison, burning sign
on the forehead, death or other punishment aren't used to so often.
The punishments were the following: For less serious crimes as for example lechery or adultery court used flogging an whipping, fines or short-time jail. More serious crimes as incest and zoophilia were punished by few years in jail or by death (most often execution as decollation by a sword). Punishments could be combined or complemented for example with expulsion from the territory of county.
