Abstract
- Vinodol Statute is the oldest legal document written in Croatian language. The aim of the paper is to point out the particularity of criminal procedure by Vinodol Statute, which is in its principles and provisions quite different from the coexisting documents on Croatian territory. The author gives an insight into the principles and basic remarks on the course of criminal procedure and its participants, especially referring to starting of criminal procedure, subjects, means of evidence and reaching a judgment. The main idea is that the Vinodol Statute is fairly more advanced than its contemporaries, even though it does not follow the inertia of the early middle Ages, as its provisions protect fundamental rights of the accused and give significant status to women. We find ignorance of torture in the evidence procedure to be the central value of the Statute. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
