Threat of SLAPPs highlighted at Slovenian Bar Association event

Jasna Zakonjšek

On March 24, 2023, Jasna Zakonjšek delivered a lecture at the civil section of Law School 2023, organized by the Slovenian Bar Association. The lecture, titled 'Strategic Lawsuits against Critical Individuals' encompassed discussions on the right to freedom of expres-sion, explanations about SLAPP, and a renewed proposal for an anti-SLAPP directive. Consequently, a substantial number of lawyers gained valuable insights into SLAPP law-suits.

To coincide with the lecture, Jasna Zakonjšek also contributed to legal discourse by authoring an article for the magazine “Odvetnik”, published by the Bar Association. This dual impact—both through the lecture and the written piece—underscored our commitment to raising awareness and knowledge about SLAPP issues within the legal community.
