Prior to the analysis of relevant provisions of the laws referring to the authority and competences of the public prosecutor in relation to the protection of domestic violence victims, the term ?victim? in the legal system of Serbia is defined.

While law enforcement in this country does not provide a judicial verdict that has a deterrent effect for corruptors. It is difficult to understand in general, whether the legal verdict for corruption perpetrators by the Panel of Judges who hear and decide the case of corruption is influenced by the interference of fellow law enforcers ..., in this case, Advocates and Public Prosecutors (Prosecutors). Decisions of Corruption Courts often cause disparity in decisions, resulting in speculation from the public and assessing such decisions as being disproportionate and giving rise to public assumptions of a conspiracy between law enforcers, namely with several categories of interests, including: (1) The interests of the Prosecutor and Judges are in the interest of getting bribes (2) Advocates as law enforcers who accompany the defendant in defence of the interests of the accused by dirty and disgusting bribes. The role of advocates is very important in creating and maintaining a clean, authoritative and civilized justice system for the realization of the legal authority in this country.Thus, legal advocates must have faith and devotion to God strong and sturdy table and must dare to appear clean and first cleanse themselves from dirty thoughts in the midst of carrying out the legal profession, so that the noble profession is not polluted into contempt resulting from violation of legal norms and professional code of ethics by advocates. Based on the outputs achieved in this research program, namely the willingness and bottomlessness of the Advocates in defending the interests of the defendant must comply with the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations and uphold the Code of Ethics Procession.The analysis of this paper shows that lawyers have made a legal defence of corruption defendants in a professional manner in accordance with applicable legal provisions and upholds the code of ethics of the legal profession, even though there is also information about an advocate who is trying to bribe one of the Corruption Crimes judges in a case. which is being handled by the Advocate concerned. The description of the results of this survey is expected to be used as input and advice that can help realize the Court's decision which has a deterrent effect on corruptors and potential corruptors in the future.

One of the main characteristics of the investigation in Germany is that the public prosecutor is in charge of investigation and the role of the police mainly depends on whether and to what extent the public prosecutor will entrust them with undertaking investigative actions. France has retained the division into inquests and investigation, as well as a powerful investigative judge. When a formal investigation is optional (it is obligatory only in the event of crimes) and is not conducted, inquests are the only form of preliminary proceedings. Preliminary investigations (inquests) are conducted by the judicial police, at the request of a public prosecutor or ex officio. The Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Italy, which was adopted in 1988 and which came into force in 1989, with its subsequent amendments, is significant, among other things, for introducing the accusatory model of criminal procedure instead of the inquisitorial one included in the Criminal Procedure Code of 1930 that was revoked when the new Criminal Procedure Code came into force.

The criminal act of corruption is a financial and humanitarian crime that harms the state and reduces the people's right to better access to welfare. The settlement of corruption cases often involves many parties, including good third parties related to the evidence seized by the Prosecutor. Judgments in judicial practice still cause new problems. The Panel of Judges imposed a crime in the form of appropriation of property in the control of a well-intentioned third party. The purpose of this paper is to examine the legal status of a third party who has good faith in the execution of confiscated goods in the case of corruption and the role of the prosecutor in a third-party lawsuit related to the execution of confiscated goods in the case of corruption. The research method used is normative legal research with statutes approach and case approach. The study indicates that the legal measures that can be done by a good third party against the confiscated objects in the case of corruption must be in accordance with Article 19 of the Anti-Corruption Eradication Act. The role of the public prosecutor in a civil case is not a public prosecutor or executor but in a lawsuit as a State Attorney Attorney under Article 30 Paragraph (2) of Law Number 16 Year 2004 regarding the Attorney General of the Republic of Indonesia. Tindak pidana korupsi adalah kejahatan keuangan dan kemanusiaan yang merugikan negara dan mengurangi hak rakyat untuk mendapat akses kesejahteraan yang lebih baik. Penyelesaian perkara tindak pidana korupsi seringkali melibatkan banyak pihak, termasuk pihak ketiga yang beritikad baik terkait dengan barang bukti yang disita oleh Penuntut Umum. Putusan-putusan dalam praktek peradilan masih menimbulkan masalah baru. Majelis Hakim menjatuhkan pidana berupa perampasan harta dalam penguasaan pihak ketiga yang beritikad baik. Tujuan penulisan ini untuk mengkaji kedudukan hukum pihak ketiga yang beritikad baik dalam eksekusi barang sitaan dalam perkara tindak pidana korupsi dan peranan jaksa dalam gugatan pihak ketiga terkait eksekusi barang sitaan dalam perkara tindak pidana korupsi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan kasus. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa Upaya Hukum yang dapat dilakukan oleh pihak ketiga yang beritikad baik terhadap benda sitaan dalam perkara tindak pidana korupsi harus sesuai dengan Pasal 19 Undang-undang Pemberantasan Tindak Pidana Korupsi. Peran jaksa dalam perkara perdata bukan sebagai penuntut umum atau eksekutor akan tetapi dalam perkara gugatan sebagai Jaksa Pengacara Negara berdasarkan Pasal 30 Ayat (2) Undang-undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2004 tentang Kejaksaan Republik Indonesia.

The article studies the main stages and features of the evolution of the public administration system in the Republic of Estonia after 1992. This paper presents brief geographical and socio-economic characteristics that largely determine the development of the country’s public administration. The evolution of the institution of the presidency, executive, and legislative powers are considered. The role of parliament and mechanisms for coordinating the interests of different groups of the population for the development of the country is especially emphasized. The authors analyze the state and administrative reforms of recent years, which were aimed at improving the quality of services provided to the population, increasing the competitiveness of different parts of Estonia, as well as optimizing public spending and management structure. The introduction of digital technologies into the sphere of public administration, healthcare, education, and the social sphere is of a notable place. Such phenomena as e-residency, e-federation, and other digital projects are considered. The development of a digital system of interstate interaction between Estonia and Finland made it possible to create the world’s first e-federation, and the digitization of all strategically important information and its transfer to cloud storage speaks of the creation of the world’s first e-residency, a special residence of data outside the country’s borders to ensure digital continuity and statehood in the event of critical malfunctions or external threats.
