**Serbian Lawyers’ Work Stoppage Stopped**
The Higher Court in Belgrade has stopped a decision by the Serbian Bar Association to stop working for seven days. This was decided on Saturday.
According to reports, the court did not allow lawyers to completely stop working. Urgent cases still have to be handled. The court made this decision after being asked to do so by lawyer Goran Petronijevic.

Milos Pavlovic, a lawyer, explained that work has to resume now. He said it’s both a matter of professional ethics and personal responsibility for lawyers to comply with the ruling. Pavlovic also called on lawyers to help resolve the crisis. He suggested that a new Assembly of the Serbian Bar Association should be convened.
