Diplomska naloga obravnava zavlačevanje izvršbe s strani dolžnikov. Izvršba je namreč izredno pomemben del sodnega varstva, saj mora biti strankam zagotovljeno, da lahko svoje pravice uresničijo, ne le da so jim priznane. Izvršilni postopek mora zato biti učinkovit, hiter ter mora onemogočati zavlačevanje. V diplomski nalogi je tako predstavljeno, na kakšen način dolžniki v praksi zavlačujejo postopek izvršbe, prav tako je opisan tudi sistem izvršbe v Nemčiji ter predlogi, ki bi dolžnikom onemogočili zavlačevanje postopka. Zavlačevanje je obravnavano tudi z vidika zlorabe pravice tako s strani strank kot odvetnikov. Graduation thesis discusses with delay in execution by debtor.
