Minister of Justice Nenad Vujić is at it again, sitting down with judiciary union reps led by Ivica Cvetković, chatting about the ‘material position’ of judiciary employees. But will anything actually change, or is this just another round of hot air to buy some time? The hot topics: amendments to the law on court fees, the law on judicial administration, and continuing bonuses to improve workers’ material conditions. But hold on — the timing of these bonuses depends on the collection of court fees! Sounds like a vicious circle, right? Vujić told union reps that changes to the court fees law will bring new ways to calculate fees, supposedly creating a bigger financial pool to improve working conditions in judicial administration. But how long will this last, and will it actually happen? This isn’t the first time we’ve heard promises about better conditions in the judiciary, yet no real results are in sight. Will this time be different? Or are we just stuck with empty talk and broken promises? Got thoughts? Drop them below — maybe together we can break this endless loop!
