Abstract
The paper publishes archival material - verdicts of the Military Court of the People's Liberation Army, which operated in the area of southeastern Srem in 1944. The verdicts were handed down in criminal proceedings against eighteen Serbs, natives of Srem, who were accused of collaborating with the "Chetnik movement of Draža Mihailović". The documents are stored in the Historical Archive of Belgrade. They have not been originally published until now, and therefore, their content brings new light to contemporary historiography, which dispels the prevailing opinion that Eastern Srem was strongly partisan. At the same time, the content of the original archival material opens up a dilemma in the field of legal science: were the decisions of the Military Court justifed and fair? The objective of the paper is to deepen knowledge from the history of the development of military justice, as well as knowledge regarding specific events during 1944 in the part of the occupied Kingdom of Yugoslavia - southeastern Srem
