eljáráson

Eljáráson is a Hungarian locative form of the noun eljárás, which means procedure, process, or proceedings. The word denotes location or time within the course of a procedure, or during a particular stage of a process. It is primarily used in formal or legal contexts, including administrative and investigative settings.

In legal and administrative language, eljáráson specifies that something occurs within the framework of the proceedings rather than outside of them. For example, a statement or action described as happening eljáráson belül occurs within the ongoing process. Conversely, eljáráson kívül would indicate something outside or not part of the proceedings. The form is common in documents related to criminal investigations (bűnvádi eljárás), civil or administrative procedures (polgári eljárás, hatósági eljárás), and in judicial reasoning.

The word is formed from eljárás plus the locative suffix -on/-en/-ön, following vowel harmony rules. Its use signals a procedural context and helps clarify the scope and relevance of information, evidence, or actions in relation to the ongoing process. While the term remains most frequent in official text, it may also appear in formal reporting and summaries where precise references to stages or aspects of a procedure are required.
