Abstract

The author analyzes protection orders (barring and restraining orders) in Serbian law in the perspective of victims’ protection, bearing in mind the growing importance of these measures in the European Union, which has been confirmed by the adoption of the Directive on the European Protection Order and the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence. She criticizes certain legal solutions, while also stressing the importance of the existence of the protection orders and their proper application in practice (not just in cases of domestic violence but also in stalking cases and other forms of harassment). Emphasis is on comparative legislative measures which offer possibilities for immediate intervention (by the police) to protect the victim, with the conclusion that some of them are welcomed in Serbia
