The EULEX panel of judges, which sentenced Oliver Ivanovic to nine years in prison, has not submitted a written judgment to his defense, stated his lawyer Nebojsa Vlajić. The deadline for submission of the judgment in the official form is 15 days, but according to the law, the court may request an extension of 60 days, which was done in this case. The deadline for delivery of the judgment expires on 4 April. “I hope that the judge will prepare and deliver a judgment within the statutory period,” said Vlajić.

An additional period of 60 days for submission of the official form of the verdict is unreasonable, stated Ksenija Bozovic, because, that much time for a judgment that has already been read, to be translated and delivered to the different parties, is unnecessary. "Obviously the judgment that was read needs to be reviewed, because it is scandalous,” she said.
