Dušan Popović (1877–1958)

His first job was as a trainee in the law office of Vasa Đurđević and he completed his articles with the attorney Dr Aleksandar Roknić in Sremska Mitrovica, in his native Vojvodina.

This ended in the collapse of a state indictment based on false documents and created a scandal for the Austrian empire, damaging the international reputation of its legal system.

During the First World War he was a deputy in the Croatian Parliament at Zagreb and was also appointed as one of Croatia's forty delegates in the Hungarian-Croatian House of Representatives in Budapest.

[2] After the end of the First World War, Popović withdrew from the public life of the new state, the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, and returned to private practice as a lawyer.

He spent the last years of his life in Belgrade, exploring historical sources, especially the medieval Chronicle of the Priest of Duklja.
