Abstract: Act No. 135/2002 Coll. Dated the 15 of March 2002 which came into effect (with the exception of specified provisions) on the 1 of July 2002, incorporated in the Civil Code special provisions on the protection of consumer entering into agreement on the use of a building or its part for a period of time. The lawmaker had several options of how to apply the provisions regulating the given issue in the Czech legal system. There is no doubt that the provision now in effect represents important development in the area of the protection of consumer as a weaker party to the existing legal obligation (contractual) relationship. There is still, however, an open question whether it would be, possibly in the future, more efficient to regulate this issue by a special Act of law. It would certainly be possible to find the grounds supporting this solution – especially in respect of the extensive scope of the facts and specific nature of this issue to be regulated.
