Efforts to reform the Montenegrin judiciary have focused on both administrative improvements and operational efficiency. Supreme State Prosecutor Milorad Marković has advocated for enhancing the professional and material status of judicial administration staff, arguing that better compensation and stability are essential for the judiciary to meet standards required for European Union integration.

In parallel, Supreme Court President Valentina Pavličić has engaged in field visits to review court operations, such as at the Basic Court in Kotor. Discussions during these reviews have centered on unifying criminal policy, managing high workloads related to domestic violence and property disputes, and utilizing artificial intelligence through an electronic judicial practice system to improve efficiency and public trust.
