Avtor v prispevku obravnava vprašanja, povezana z uresničevanjem ene temeljnih človekovih pravic v postopkih odločanja o pravicah, obveznostih in pravnih koristih posameznikov in drugih oseb, to je z uresničevanjem pravice do enakega varstva pravic iz 22. člena Ustave. Pri tem najprej povzame stališča, vsebovana v odločbah Ustavnega sodišča, in opredeli poglavitne zahteve, ki jih je glede sodelovanja prizadetih oseb v upravnem postopku izoblikovalo to sodišče. Ugotavlja, da Ustavno sodišče pravico do udeležbe v postopku razlaga široko, kar je z vidika njenega uresničevanja kot človekove pravice razumljivo. Kljub temu pa se zastavlja tudi vprašanje, ali za udeležbo v upravnem postopku res zadostuje zgolj formalno izkazan obstoj pravnega interesa.

In the paper the author deals with questions regarding realization of one of the basic human rights, namely the right to equal protection of rights, in legal proceedings on rights, obligations and legal entitlements of individuals and other persons in accordance to the Article 22 of the Constitution. The first part is dedicated to summarisation of the standpoints which are included in the Constitutional Court's rulings as well as defining principal conditions which were formed by the Court regarding collaboration of persons whose rights might be affected by administrative proceedings. The author finds that the Court interprets the right to participate in legal proceedings quite broadly, which is understandable, judging from the standpoint of carrying it out as a human right. However, one cannot but find a particular question simultaneously emerging, namely whether formal demonstration of legal entitlement suffices for participation in administrative proceedings.
