Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Court of Slovenia dismissed the victim's request for protection of legality filed as a prosecutor. The court held that under the Criminal Procedure Code, only the state prosecutor, the accused, or their defense lawyer may file such a request, and after the accused's death, only specific persons in their interest. Since the victim is not a procedural participant authorized to file this extraordinary legal remedy, the request was rejected as inadmissible.

Zahteva oškodovanca kot tožilca R.Š. za varstvo zakonitosti se zavrže kot nedovoljena.

[JEDRO]

Oškodovanec kot tožilec ne more vložiti zahteve za varstvo zakonitosti.

[OBRAZLOŽITEV]

Po določilu 1. odstavka 421. člena Zakona o kazenskem postopku (ZKP) smejo zahtevo za varstvo zakonitosti vložiti državni tožilec Republike Slovenije, obdolženec in zagovornik, po obdolženčevi smrti pa jo smejo v njegovo korist vložiti osebe iz drugega odstavka 367. člena ZKP. Oškodovanec kot tožilec torej ni procesni udeleženec, ki bi lahko vložil to izredno pravno sredstvo. Zato je Vrhovno sodišče zahtevo oškodovanca kot tožilca R.Š. za varstvo zakonitosti zavrglo kot nedovoljeno (2. odstavek 422. člena ZKP).
