Revija za kriminologiju i krivično pravo 56(2) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode Sažetak: U radu se razmatra pravni položaj branioca prema Zakonu o prekršajima Republike Srbije. Imajući u vidu značaj prekršajnog postupka, njegovu veliku sličnost sa krivičnim postupkom, te značaj prava na odbranu koje u sebi uključuje i pravo na branioca, stiče se utisak da institutu branioca u prekršajnom pravu, kao posebnom procesnom subjektu, u teoriji nije posvećeno dovoljno pažnje. Autor u ovom radu razmatra pojam i obeležja branioca u prekršajnom postupku, njegova prava i dužnosti, kao i način prestanka statusa branioca. Na kraju, u zaključku, autor daje i izvesne predloge de lege ferenda, s ciljem unapređenja postojeće legislative. This paper deals with legal position of defence counsel according to the Misdemenaour Law of the Republic of Serbia. Bearing in mind the significance of misdemenaour procedure, its great similarities with criminal procedure, and significance of the right to defence which includes the right to defence counsel, it looks that the issue of the defence counsel position in misdemenaour law should be further analysed. The author of this paper analyses the notion and features of the defence counsel in misdemenaour procedure, their rights and duties, and the manner of ceasing of the defender status. Finally, in the conclusion, the author gives certain proposals de lege ferenda, aimed at improvement of the current legislation. info:eu-repo/semantics/article 2018 srp https://phaidrabg.bg.ac.rs/o:29753 cobiss:271261708 ISSN: 1820-2969 Ključne reči: Branilac, prekršajni postupak, Zakon o prekršajima, Republika Srbija.
