The President of the Supreme Court of Montenegro, Valentina Pavličić, and the President of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Slovenia, Miodrag Đorđević, have engaged in discussions about experiences and methods to achieve accurate verdicts on the first attempt. This meeting was announced by the Supreme Court of Montenegro today.

According to the statement, the discussion took place during the High-Level International Conference “Towards the EU: Strengthening the Integrity and Independence of Criminal Justice in the Western Balkans” held in Ljubljana. The leaders of the two nations’ highest courts shared their experiences regarding the functioning of their judicial systems and explored the expert assistance that Slovenia could offer to Montenegro.

The TIPCO system, which allows for audio recordings of trials and real-time transcription of participants’ voices through software, was also a key topic of discussion.

“This voice-to-text system eliminates the need for judges to dictate minutes and later retype trial transcripts. The Slovenian experience demonstrates that this is an effective tool in court proceedings, and thus its potential implementation in Montenegrin courts was deliberated,” the Supreme Court’s statement explained.

Additionally, Pavličić met with Mark Shaw, the director of the Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime (GI-TOC), to discuss projects aimed at assisting Montenegro in combating organized crime and corruption.

“Efforts to prevent and address corruption and organized crime, as well as to enhance regional and international cooperation, encounter significant challenges. Sharing experiences and innovative strategies for systematic corruption prevention and implementing effective measures against it are crucial for ensuring transparent and accountable use of public resources. Understanding the connections between organized crime and corruption is essential for tackling the threats they pose to our societies,” was among the messages conveyed at the conference.

The conclusion reached was that the integrity and independence of criminal justice are vital in this endeavor. Moreover, justice systems must evolve to meet both current and future challenges in a rapidly transforming world.

“The Slovenian Ministry of Justice and the Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime organized this two-day conference, stating that our nations and the international community can only confront these issues with a strong commitment to the rule of law, respect for human dignity, fundamental human rights, and shared prosperity,” the Supreme Court added.

The announcement noted that the conference, supported by the United Kingdom Government, was attended by approximately 40 senior representatives from the European Union, various governments, criminal justice institutions, international and regional organizations, and civil society. This event followed on from successful meetings held in Šibenik and Tirana in previous years.
