Sažetak
The arrest of ship implicates a series of legal relations, often in different jurisdictions, that are of great significance for successful effectuating of this temporary measure. Lawyers, who are engaged in the arrest of ships, have to know how to establish the subjectivity of parties according to rules of strict process legitimacy in right jurisdiction, in order to arrest the right ship at the right time. The effectuation of arrest presupposes finding out the way through different jurisdictions, which contain certain distinctions. They show themselves through the nature of maritime claim, court jurisdiction, relation between debtor, i.e. defendant, the ship intended for the arrest, and the claimant i.e. applicant, security and the counter-security for the eventual damages caused by wrongful arrest as a consequence of improper proceeding, or through the inequalities of legislative solutions.

Therefore, the rules of proceedings in relation to execution must especially be inspired by tendency for fast, economical and efficient proceeding, which will, if possible, ensure as undisturbed as possible, exploitation of ship, even during the execution proceedings. On the other hand, the subject of execution is very mobile, and it demands special measures which scope is the insurance of an efficient seizure of the subject of execution.
Concerning the emphasized foreign element in the maritime traffic, the foreign persons may appear as applicants for execution or the debtors in execution proceedings, as representatives of other real-estate relations, of as the competitors in procedure of forced sale of ships. This imposes the necessity of inclination towards solutions established by international conventions, which should be or have been receipted in internal legislature, or Serbia and Montenegro has joined these enactments of international law; while it still does not exist the accepted, uniform international legal system of execution on ships.
