Konec novembra 2023 smo se poslovili od Vaska Poliča, človeka številnih talentov, človeka velikega srca in mehke duše. V mladosti vrhunski športnik, pa nato vse drugo: pravnik, igralec, pisatelj, pesnik, glasbenik, živa filmska enciklopedija. Predvsem in najprej pa je bil Vasko vrhovni sodnik celih 24 let. Izvoljen leta 1986 in upokojen v tej funkciji leta 2010. To pomeni, da je to funkcijo opravljal tudi v času prelomnih dogodkov tako za slovensko državnost kot tudi za naš pravni sistem. Ob pomenu funkcije vrhovnega sodnika že čas opravljanja te funkcije pomeni globoko sled na delovanju pravnega sistema, v njegovem primeru posebej na področju upravnega prava.

In the final days of November 2023, we bade farewell to Vasko Polič, a man of diverse talents and remarkable compassion. A distinguished athlete in his youth, Polič’s career spanned a variety of fields: a lawyer, actor, writer, poet, musician, and a veritable encyclopaedia of cinema. However, his most notable role was as the Supreme Court judge, a position he held for 24 years. Elected in 1986, he served until his retirement in 2010. His tenure coincided with pivotal moments in the evolution of Slovenian statehood and its legal system. Given the significance of the role of Supreme Judge, his period in office profoundly influenced the legal system, particularly in the field of administrative law.
