Minister Expects Court Proceedings Not Slower Due to Strike

Ljubljana, 1 July - Slovenian Justice Minister Lovro Sturm said that he regretted the decision of judges to start a work-to-rule strike on Tuesday. However, he does not expect a drop in the number of court proceedings provided cases are chosen in regular order, as the strike is taking place just before the judicial vacation.
