Discussion

Daryo Mar 17, 2017:
ever heard the story about the forest and the trees?
Vuka Mijuskovic Mar 15, 2017:
Ovde se radi o postupku porodičnog prava u kom sudija ima viši stepen ovlašćenja nego u preliminarnom postupku krivičnog prava.
U standardnoj sudskoj proceduri, sudija koji vodi preliminarni postupak nema ovlašćenje da izriče pravni lek, nego samo da utvrdi regularnost materijala na osnovu kog se sudi. Tj sudija je tad tek policija za policiju koja je izvršila uviđaj, za case managera koji je ispred socijalne službe sastavio izveštaj, za advokate i njihove svedoke - veštake, izvore materijalnih dokaza i ličnih svedočenja. Sudi se relevantnosti materijala na osnovu kog se odmerava i potvrđuje pravni lek.
U porodičnom pravu, tom "step one" sudiji je oblast delovanja proširena, pa je on nosilac "single step" procedure, za razliku od standardnih "step one =preliminary,; step two = grand / main hearing and just closure"
Daryo Mar 15, 2017:
"Glavna rasprava" is the hearing where the substantial questions are decided (as opposed to all kind of preliminary arguments about points of procedure) - sounds to me close enough to "Adjudication hearing" as defined in the given extract.

Namely, although this is family law, not criminal or civil matters, "Adjudication hearing" is still the stage where substantial questions are decided.

If you compare with the meaning of "to adjudicate" it also makes sense - and the Serbian law uses the same terms главни претрес / главна расправа in comparable situations.

John Farebrother (asker) Mar 14, 2017:
Preširoko Glavna rasprava je široki pojam, ovdje se radi specifično o postupku porodičnog prava
milena beba Mar 13, 2017:
– Glavna rasprava: (1)tužilac ukratko izlaže sva bitna pitanja iz tužbe i izvodi dokaze čitanjem isprava; (2) tuženiukratko izlaže odgovor na tužbu i daje odgovor na bitne navode tužioca; (3) izvode se dokazisaslušanjem stranaka i to prvo tužioca i zatim tuženog, saslušanjem svedoka i to prvo svedokakoje je predložio tužilac, a zatim svedoka koje je predložio tuženi; (4) izvode se dokaziveštačenjem; (5) po izvođenju svih dokaza stranke imaju pravo na završno izlaganje kojimrezimiraju pravni i činjenični aspekt predmeta spora i to tako što pravo na završnu reč ima najpretužilac, a onda tuženi, s tim što sud može dozvoliti tužiocu da se izjasni na završno izlaganjetuženog, a ako je to dozvolio tužiocu, onda je dužan da dozvoli tuženom da se ukratko izjasni nakonačne navode tužioca (član 99. ZPP-a).

Privilegovano skraćeni postupak / preliminarni pretres i arbitraža

According to
Milan Škulić* Pravni fakultet, Univerzitet u Beogradu DOMINANTNE KARAKTERISTIKE OSNOVNIH VELIKIH KRIVIČNOPROCESNIH SISTEMA I NJIHOV UTICAJ NA REFORMU SRPSKOG KRIVIČNOG POSTUPKA
around pg 29,
"glavni pretres" would be analogue to US format of grand jury (every adult is by constitution entitled to) , and adjudicary would be closer to preliminary. How so?
Bringing minors before grand jury is as much crime of compromising child's privacy as much mean of bringing justice. So in case of minors and the needy, the judge has arbitrary clearing as well as regularity of evidence checking.

glavna rasprava

Bilo da se radi o neposrednom ili posrednom saznanju, do bitnih činjenica sud dolazi izvođenjem dokaza na glavnoj raspravi, a dokazna sredstva su: uviđaj, isprave, veštačenje, saslušanje svedoka i stranaka i stručni nalaz i mišljenje ustanove za posredovanje u porodičnim odnosima (čl. 220. do 265. ZPP, u vezi sa čl. 205. i 270. PZ).
Bitne činjenice koje sud mora utvrditi da bi odredio adekvatne mere zaštite, između ostalog, jesu:
1) radnje izvršenja;
2) vrsta, težina i učestalost;
3) posledice koje maloletno lice trpi i njihov uticaj na dalji psihofizički razvoj;
4) psihološki status maloletnog lica, roditelja i člana porodice ako drugi član porodice vrši nasilje;
5) socijalni i ekonomski uslovi u kojima maloletno lice živi;
6) potrebe maloletnog lica na emotivnom, vaspitnom i obrazovnom planu, odnosno da li drugi roditelj ili član porodice može da ih zadovolji;
7) mišljenje maloletnog lica, ako je to u njegovom najboljem interesu

Peer comment(s):

neutral Daryo : "whether the child protective services (CPS) agency can prove the allegations" sounds more like a criminal matter // your ref. [a very good one, BTW] uses both "glavna rasprava" and "glavni pretres" - not obvious which one is more suited for this ST!

Adjudicatory Hearing Law and Legal Definition

An adjudicatory hearing is a hearing in which the purpose is making a judicial ruling such as a judgment or decree. It is sometimes used in juvenile criminal cases as another term for a trial. At such an adjudicatory hearing, the judge determines whether the facts as stated in the petition or warrant are true.

Child Protective Services

Child Protective Services (CPS) is the name of a governmental agency in many states of the United States responsible for providing child protection, which includes responding to reports of child abuse or neglect. Some states use other names, often attempting to reflect more family-centered (as opposed to child-centered) practices, such as "Department of Children & Family Services" (DCFS). CPS is also known by the name of "Department of Social Services" (DSS) or simply "Social Services."

главни претрес => кривични поступак (criminal matters)

главна расправа => парнични поступак (civil matters)

if you compare with the meaning of "adjudicated matter", it stands to reason that an "adjudication hearing" is the one where the substantial questions are decided. (IOW главни претрес / главна расправа)

disagree Vuka Mijuskovic : More prone to believe M. Škulić's formulations.

you are free to be "prone" to whatever you want, the key point is finding the info relevant to the specific ST (and also not to forget a minor detail: to interpret it correctly ...)
