20.500.12556/RUL-144684 Evropski koncept neodvisnega sodstva in kvantifikacija formalne neodvisnosti sodstva v izbranih državah Evropske unije The European concept of an independent judiciary and quantification of a formal judicial independence in selected countries of the European Union Avtorja obravnavata pravne standarde, ki jih glede neodvisnega sodstva vsebujejo dokumenti oziroma pravni akti Sveta Evrope ter sodne prakse Evropskega sodišča za človekove pravice in Sodišča Evropske unije. Iz njih izpeljeta evropski koncept neodvisnega sodstva. Za operacionalizacijo tega koncepta sta izdelala poseben test, ki je priložen članku in ki omogoča kvantifikacijo formalne neodvisnosti sodstva v posameznih državah, zlasti pa v državah članicah Evropske unije. Na podlagi prej omenjenega testa sta analizirala hrvaško, madžarsko, nemško, poljsko in slovensko pravno ureditev na področju sodstva. Glede tega sta ugotovila, da v poljski in madžarski pravni ureditvi obstajajo sistemske pomanjkljivosti, ki po mnenju avtorjev ne zagotavljajo nekaterih temeljnih evropskih pravnih standardov neodvisnega sodstva, takih pomanjkljivosti pa nista ugotovila v hrvaški, nemški in slovenski pravni ureditvi. V zvezi s slednjimi sta ugotovila razlike pri posameznih pravnih standardih, ki kažejo, da so v vsaki od opazovanih pravnih ureditev mogoče, pravzaprav zaželene izboljšave, celokupno gledano pa so pravne ureditve teh držav primerljive, saj dosegajo rezultat okrog 0,8 (80 odstotkov), kar zadošča za sklep, da je zagotovljena formalna neodvisnost sodstva v Hrvaški, Nemčiji in Sloveniji. Avtorja posebno pozornost namenjata primerom, ki so morda na prvi pogled videti skladni z evropskim standardi neodvisnega sodstva, dejansko pa niso. Glede tega na primeru sodnega sveta poleg zunanjih vplivov oziroma napadov na neodvisno sodstvo opozarjata na tako imenovane notranje napade, ki lastnost značaj trojanskega konja. The authors discuss the European legal standards of an independent judiciary as contained in the Council of Europe’s documents and legal acts as well as in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the European Union. For the operationalisation of the European concept of independent judiciary, the authors developed a special test (questionnaire) included in the article’s appendix to enable the quantification of a formal judicial independence in selected countries, especially in the EU Member States. Based on the aforementioned test, the authors analysed the Croatian, Hungarian, German, Polish and Slovenian legal systems in the field of judiciary. They noted that systemic deficiencies exist in the Polish and Hungarian legal systems, which, according to the authors, fail to meet some of the fundamental European legal standards of an independent judiciary. On the other hand, however, they did not find such deficiencies in the Croatian, German and Slovenian legal systems. A comparison of the three legal systems shows differences in compatibility with individual legal standards, which consequently indicate that in each of the observed legal systems improvements are possible or in fact desirable. Overall, however, the legal systems of those three selected countries are comparable with one another, considering a measured score of around 0,8 (80 per cent) in all of them, which is sufficient enough to conclude that formal judicial independence in Croatia, Germany and Slovenia is guaranteed. Moreover, the authors paid special attention to cases that may at first glance appear to be consistent with the European concept of an independent judiciary, but in fact are not. In this regard, the authors pointed out a special body that is supposed to provide a kind of buffer zone between the legislative and executive branches of public authority on the one hand, and the judiciary on the other. Regarding this body, i.e., the judiciary council, they problematize not only external inadmissible influences or attacks on the independent judiciary, but also internal attacks (which are too often ignored, probably because they are less obvious and more difficult to recognize). In short, if the judiciary council is not properly structured and secured, it can have the character of a Trojan horse. neodvisno sodstvo evropski pravni standardi neodvisnosti formalna neodvisnost kvantifikacija formalne neodvisnosti evropski sodni prostor independent judiciary European legal standards of independence formal independence quantification of the formal independence European judicial area true false false Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2023-03-08 08:55:36 2023-03-08 08:55:44 2023-03-09 03:29:13 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 Str. 157-185, 400, 416 Letn. 82 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2022-01-01 347.962.6:061.1EU 1854-3839 10.51940/2022.1.157-185 132683779 ZZR_2022_06_Lipic_Plohl,_Fercic.pdf ZZR_2022_06_Lipic_Plohl,_Fercic.pdf 1 188F2569BE860A0979114A2A92D49D34 2e9a410782f3eff4769b38b7086e7690d91fadfbc2b356147e11374b7a98a643 c566131f-bd86-11ed-a314-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=167148 Pravna fakulteta Zbornik znanstvenih razprav 0 0 0
