50th Anniversary of the Slovenian Association of Judges

News of the IAJ

On the past June 4th the Slovenian Association of Judges, a member of EAJ/IAJ, held a special ceremony to commemorate its 50th Anniversary.

The event was presential and took place in Ljubljana for an audience of several dozens of judges and some international invited guests.

Having in mind the difficult long months experienced by all organizations of judges due to the total absence of presential activities, this ceremony held on Ljubljana in June 4th marked a symbolical and historical moment that should be much welcomed.

The speakers of the event were Andrej Ekart, President of the Slovenian Association, and José Igreja Matos, President of the European Association of Judges.

During the ceremony, a special and moving tribute has been made to prominent Slovenian judges, members of the national association, including Honorary President of IAJ, Maja Tratnik, and Janja Roblek, distinguished member of several commissions within EAJ.

Adding to the presence of national judicial authorities – President of Supreme Court, President of Constitutional Court – attended the activities some foreign invited colleagues including the Vice President of IAJ, Duro Sessa, and the presidents of the Croatian and Austrian Associations.
