FOUR GROUNDBREAKING VICTORIES AT THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT! 🏛️

With immense pride, we announce that the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Slovenia has sided with the Law Firm Cukrov and annulled the provisions of spatial plans that unlawfully changed the designated use of land from building to agricultural.

With this decision, on behalf of SDH, d.d., Mercator, d.o.o., Rovanova, d.o.o., and Roltek, d.o.o., we have secured the protection of legal certainty, proportionality, and private property, as the municipality had altered land use without an adequate professional basis.

📽️ Watch the video in which Vesna Cukrov, founder of the Law Firm Cukrov, court expert in law, and former president of the National Review Commission, explains the significance of these decisions and their impact on future cases!

European Commission Launches Infringement Procedure Against Slovenia Over Amendments to the Pharmacy Services Act

The European Commission has initiated an infringement procedure against the Republic of Slovenia under case number INFR(2025)4011. The procedure concerns the alleged non-compliance of provisions in the Pharmacy Services Act with Directive 2014/24/EU on public procurement.

The amendments to the Pharmacy Services Act reportedly allow public pharmacy institutions to procure medicines without using public procurement procedures. The European Commission considers such regulation a breach of fundamental EU law principles, particularly the principles of transparency, competition, and efficiency in the use of public funds.

As part of the initiated procedure, Slovenia has received a formal notice and must respond within two months. If the Commission is not satisfied with the response, it may issue a reasoned opinion as the next step in the preliminary procedure before a potential lawsuit before the Court of Justice of the EU.

CHARITY EVENT “KRESNA NOČ”

Yesterday, we attended the charity event organized by the Lions Club Ljubljana Ilirija at Križanke as donors. Once again this year, the event was carried out with great dedication and warmth, under the honorary patronage of the President of the Republic of Slovenia, Dr. Nataša Pirc Musar, who emphasized the importance of human connection and helping those in greatest need.

This year’s focus was on the mental distress of young people – an increasingly pressing issue that is still too often overlooked.

Sincere thanks to the Lions Club Ljubljana Ilirija for your annual efforts and for your continued commitment to bringing people together and helping others.

 

 

ChatGPT (still) can’t be a member of an expert committee – although many would like it to be sometimes

Today, our colleague Veronika Cukrov gave a lecture at the conference “Public Procurement in Practice – Challenges, Pitfalls, and Solutions”, organized by Tax-Fin-Lex, on the use of artificial intelligence in public procurement. A look abroad showed that AI is already officially helping in some places with preparing tenders, reviewing bids, assessing risks, and communicating with bidders.

In Slovenia, things are different. Apart from the European AI Act, we don’t have much regulation, and even that does not focus on public procurement. The Slovenian Public Procurement Act (ZJN-3) can help us only through its guiding principles. But that doesn’t mean AI isn’t already in use in practice – it just means it’s being used without clear rules, in a gray area that is not subject to oversight.

Law Firm Cukrov Awarded the Title of Best Public Procurement Law Firm in Slovenia for 2024/2025

We are pleased to announce that the organization Leaders in Law has awarded Law Firm Cukrov the prestigious title of Public Procurement Law Firm of the Year in Slovenia for 2024/2025.

This recognition affirms our professional expertise, continuous education, and commitment to achieving the best outcomes for our clients. It serves as both an honor and a motivation to remain at the forefront of public procurement law and to continue striving for excellence.

Thank you for your trust in us.

Veronika Cukrov attending Bled Strategic Forum 2024

A statement from our lawyer Veronika Cukrov regarding the event:

“The Bled Strategic Forum 2024 has come to a close! Over two insightful days, we delved into pressing global issues, from India’s future positioning to cybersecurity challenges.

Among the many memorable moments, the poignant performance of Somewhere from West Side Story by Palestinian soprano Nour Darwish, on a panel under the patronage of President Dr. Nataša Pirc Musar, stood out. Her rendition was both moving and inspiring.

Congratulations to the organizers for a flawlessly executed event! ”
