o:6087 General damages awarded for emotional distress resulting from miscarriage of justice and false imprisonment Naknada nematerijalne štete zbog duševnih bolova nastalih neosnovanom osudom i neosnovanim lišenjem slobode en ABSTRACT: Compensation for non-economic damages, the debate over its justification, and the adequacy of compensation awarded for harm to non-economic goods have been contentious issues among domestic legal theorists for decades. The provisions of the 1978 Law on Obligations resolved this debate by introducing the right to monetary compensation for non-economic damages in explicitly enumerated cases. The aim of the authors is to use appropriate scientific methods to demonstrate how failures by state authorities, specifically the police and judicial bodies, can cause non-economic damage to individuals through miscarriages of justice and false imprisonment. Freedom is a fundamental human right, guaranteed by the Constitution, laws, and ratified international documents. This raises the question of how, and to what extent, a wrongful conviction or unlawful deprivation of liberty violates this fundamental right, and what legal remedies are available to the victim. The focus of the paper will be on the legislation of the Republic of Serbia, as well as the views and interpretations in legal theory and in practice regarding the victim's claim for monetary compensation for harm to non-economic goods, such as reputation and honor. APSTRAKT: Naknada nematerijalne štete, dilema njene opravdanosti i adekvatnost obeštećenja koje je neko lice primilo na osnovu pretrpljene štete na nematerijalnom dobru, predstavljaju pitanja oko kojih su se decenijama "lomila koplja" među domaćim pravnim teoretičarima. Tačku na ovu nedoumicu stavile su odredbe Zakona o obligacionim odnosima iz 1978. godine koje su uvele pravo na novčanu naknadu nematerijalne štete u taksativno navedenim slučajevima. Cilj autora je da u radu, primenom odgovarajućih naučnih metoda, ukažu na koji način propusti u radu državnih organa, konkretno, policije i organa pravosuđa, mogu da pričine nematerijalnu štetu žrtvi, neosnovanom osudom i lišenjem slobode. Pravo na slobodu je elementarno ljudsko pravo zagarantovano Ustavom, zakonima i ratifikovanim međunarodnim aktima. Postavlja se pitanje na koji način i u kojoj meri donošenje neosnovane osude tj. neosnovano lišenje slobode krši to elementarno ljudsko pravo i koji pravni instrumenti stoje na raspolaganju žrtvi. Predmet rada će biti pozitivnopravni propisi u Republici Srbiji, kao i stavovi i shvatanja u pravnoj teoriji i praksi u vezi sa zahtevom žrtve da joj se novčano nadoknadi šteta koju je pretrpela na nematerijalnim dobrima kao što su ugled i čast.
