Summary/Abstract: The following contribution presents the role of lawyer Dr Milan Škerlj in the development of the judicial administration after the political turning point of 1918. He was among those Slovenian lawyers who were supposed to receive the titles of university lecturers and assume the positions of professors at the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana in case of its establishment. Although he was counted upon during the establishment of the University of Ljubljana, the Justice Commission wanted him to apply his experiences from the Ministry of Justice in Vienna to the judicial reform in Slovenia. Škerlj therefore initially participated in the judicial development in Slovenia after 1918 and was the last Head of the Judicial Department in Ljubljana at the time of its termination in 1924. Later he was fully employed at the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana.
