Administrative Punishment

Administrative punishment refers to the measures taken by government authorities to enforce laws and regulations, typically for violations of rules related to public conduct or administrative procedures. These punishments can include fines, warnings, suspension of licenses, or other penalties intended to correct behavior and ensure compliance. They are different from criminal penalties because they usually involve administrative procedures rather than criminal justice processes. The goal is to maintain order and uphold regulations efficiently, often with procedures that are quicker and less formal than court trials.
