Summary/Abstract: Procedural formalism requires conformity to requirements concerning the approach to procedural measures as to the form, location, and time of their commencement. The timely completion of each procedural measure, including applications for the drafting and submitting of a judgment and justification thereof, remains a condition for its effectiveness. It goes without saying that the court will reject any delayed application for the drafting and submitting of a judgment and justification in closed session – whereas discrepancies in adjudicature as well as doctrine doubts have arisen with regard to effects of filing “premature” applications. It has been ultimately ruled that any applications for the drafting and submitting of a judgment and justification filed on the day of yet prior to judgment delivery shall be considered ineffective. The judgment only exists once it has been delivered or once its operative part has been signed, i.a. it can only become the object of other procedural measures as of that moment rather than as of that day. Every period defined as a specific time span has to be framed with occurrences outlining its beginning and end, respectively. It is impossible to calculate a period as of a procedural measure which has not been completed yet. Since the securing of a justification of a judgment delivered in one’s own case is an expression of exercising the right to fair trial, and aspects of the right to trial include the right to a defect-free judgment, such right ought to be exercised only provided that the relevant application moved for is defect-free as well. Making the effectiveness of an application for the drafting and submitting of judgment justification dependent on the delivery of the operative part of a judgment concerns both the act of filing a letter with the court and submitting the same at an operator’s postal premises.
