摘要

The authors elaborate on the practical implementation of the two newly enacted elements for negotiated justice within the Macedonian criminal procedure. In this occasion, the authors perform research of the practical implementation of the sentence bargaining and guilty plea in front of the courts for the period of seven years. Authors conclude that instead of having a wider use of these negotiated instruments in practice and by that improving the efficiency and efficacy of the Macedonian courts, the contrary situation can be observed, as the number of cases resolved through these instruments are declining. The chapter analyses the reasons for such situation and provides theoretical and practical possible solutions for improvement of the observed trend in the use of these negotiated justice instruments.
