English to Croatian Law/Patents Law (general) Police

A postal requisition or postal charge is the name for a magistrates’ court summons. It tells you when you need to attend court for a criminal case and what the offences are that you are being accused of.
Postal requisitions can cover serious criminal charges or routine traffic matters. The postal requisition won’t, however, tell you what the evidence is why the decision has now been made to now take you to court and to prosecute you.
As the police look to save money, a number of cases are dealt with outside of the formal arrest/charge procedure. If a voluntary police interview or Caution plus 3 interview is conducted, an individual is usually told they will be reported for a charging decision whereby the decision may not be made for many months.
