Summary/Abstract: In February 2021, the Serbian Bar Association published a list of candidates from the ranks of attorneys who were nominated for membership in the High Judicial Council (HJC) and the State Prosecutorial Council (SPC). Attorneys who act as defence councils in certain active cases that have caused great anxiety among the citizens, are also among them. The National Assembly has yet to discuss the proposed candidates and decide on the election. The current chairman of the competent parliamentary committee is also an attorney and defence counsel in active cases, as well as an ex officio member of both judicial councils. // With this short analysis, the prEUgovor coalition is attempting to compensate for this shortcoming and offer possible solutions.
