In the present master's thesis, entitled Criteria for Assessing the Admissibility of Evidentiary Proposals in an Administrative Dispute, the criteria for assessing evidentiary proposals that have been developed in Slovenian administrative judicial practice are collected and presented. The presentation of evidence in the procedure represents an important framework and guide to determine the actual situation and furthermore the correct application of substantive law. The administrative court, as a first-instance court, determines the actual situation based on the evidentiary procedure previously fully implemented in the administrative procedure. This does not necessarily mean a limitation of the court's powers in relation to the implementation of evidence. The master's thesis thus presents the constitutional starting points and the basis for development of the criteria in international documents. Key institutes of the evidentiary procedure will also be presented. Furthermore, the right to present evidence which allows the party to take actions to state in the procedure and evidence in an administrative dispute is not absolute. In case of constitutionally permissible reasons, it is possible to reject the evidentiary proposal. An evidentiary proposal can be rejected for permissible formal or substantive criteria. In the second part of the master's thesis, these criteria are presented, especially the criteria of time, substantiality, concretisation, completeness, necessity and appropriateness.
