In the focus was also a dilemma of the participants, the question of whether the "Referral Court" is the sole judge, the president of the trial panel or the entire panel and whether the approval of the president of the Referral Court should be obtained for sending the case to the Constitutional Court? One of the advisors of the Constitutional Court answered these and other questions.
The training/visit was aimed at strengthening mutual capacities and exchanging best experiences, the methodology was interactive.
The beneficiaries of the training were the newly appointed judges and prosecutors (generation IX), where two of them were from the Bosnian community.
