Sažetak
After having briefly presented the relevant facts, the author of the paper highlights two major theoretical dilemmas arising from a recent case (the so-called City Cemetery case) that was settled before the Croatian courts: the problem of gaps in the law and the problem of antinomy between two principles of law (the principle of nemo plus iuris and the principle of good faith). In an attempt to resolve the aforementioned dilemmas the author first presents the general stance on the problems of gaps in the law and antinomy in the law and the ways of dealing with them within the framework of the general theory of law. Furthermore, the author analyses the contents of the principles in question. Finally, on the basis of the solutions given in the writings on the general theory of law and the results of the analysis of the said principles, the author criticises the reasoning of the final judgment in the City Cemetery case and provides a different (theoretical) approach to the solving of these dilemmas.
