Abstract :Medieval Bosnia is an interesting historical and legal phenomenon. Starting from its state organization, then through the legal order, which is still one of the inexhaustible topics of the wider legal public. A particularly interesting part of medieval Bosnian law is procedural, but also criminal law, about which, admittedly, little is known, but this does not represent an obstacle in the work of legal and historical authors. Based on concise sources, the author will try to show the development of criminal law and explain the procedure, and the way of judging within the borders of the Bosnian medieval state. There will also be talks about the organization of the judiciary and jurisdiction.
