On the reimbursement of pre-trial costs in legal proceedings
Vicko Prančić
Abstract
In legal proceedings, the court offers protection to violated or threatened subjective civil rights. Offering such protection creates material costs of which a part is borne by the parties because the government does not offer free legal protection in the area of civil judiciary. The provisions of the Legal Proceedings Act ( ZPP) determine the costs which are to be borne by the parties, which party must secure costs in advance and which party must ultimately defray the costs of legal proceedings. That is, when the party must eventually defray their own costs and who must defray the opposing party’s and other procedural subjects’ costs are determined. The fundamental question in the institution of payment of legal proceedings is who must ultimately bear the costs of proceedings, that is, who must reimburse the other procedural subjects and according to which criteria. In this paper, the costs which are created in legal proceedings are discussed and an attempt is made to answer the question about what is included in pre-trial costs in legal proceedings.
