As part of the Introduction to Law I course, a group of freshmen students from the IUS Faculty of Law (FLW), accompanied by Assistant Professor Dr. Mirza Ljubović, visited the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of Bosnia and Herzegovina (HJPC BiH) on December 3, 2024.

The students were addressed by the President of the HJPC BiH, Mr. Halil Lagumdžija, who welcomed them warmly and introduced them to the work and history of the institution. They also had the opportunity to learn about the organizational structure of the HJPC BiH, as well as the basic competencies of the institution, the process of appointment and promotion of judicial office holders, and the process of determining the possible disciplinary liability of judges and prosecutors. These topics were presented by the Head of the Department for Appointment and Promotion, Mr. Jasmin Čalija, and the Deputy Chief Disciplinary Prosecutor, Mr. Mirza H. Omerović.

The session concluded with a dynamic Q&A segment, where students had the opportunity to deepen their understanding and engage directly with professionals in the field.

We extend our gratitude to our host for their warm hospitality.
