On the basis of the analysis of the rules of the Code of Civil Procedure of Ukraine governing proceedings on appeals against decisions of arbitration courts, and taking into account scholars’ points of view on this issue, the article investigates the procedure for commencing proceedings in cases of the relevant category and preparing them for judicial review. The author argues that it is advisable to consider commencement of appellate proceedings against the decisions of arbitration courts as a separate stage of civil proceedings that has a specific procedural purpose, structure and deadlines clearly defined by the law. Attention is drawn to the unreasonable refusal to commence proceedings in the event of an appeal against a decision made by an arbitration court on the grounds not provided for by the law. In this part, it is noted that the decision on the presence or absence of the grounds for setting aside an award made by the arbitration court, according to Part 3 of Article 457 of the Code of Civil Procedure of Ukraine, is taken when considering the case in court. Thus, refusing to commence proceedings on the basis of Part 8 of Article 454 of the Code of Civil Procedure of Ukraine, the court actually makes a decision on the substance out of court. With respect to the abovementioned, it is suggested to specify the rules of Part 8 of Article 454 of the Code of Civil Procedure of Ukraine. Considering the procedure for preparation of cases on appeals against decisions of arbitration courts, the author focuses his attention on the progressive nature of the provisions of Article 456 of the Code of Civil Procedure of Ukraine. It establishes the right of a competent court on its own initiative to ask the arbitration court for the necessary case materials concerning the grounds for setting aside the arbitral award. The implementation of this approach creates the conditions for further fair trial. At the same time, the consideration of cases on appeals against the decisions of arbitration courts in the order of simplified procedure according to the current version of the Code of Civil Procedure of Ukraine, in the author’s opinion, limits the parties’ possibilities for a compromise solution to the dispute. Emphasis is placed on the reasoning of further improving the legislation in terms of empowering the parties to conciliate procedures, at the stage of preparation of cases for trial.

Renunciation of the Right of Appeal in the Simplified ProcedureSummaryThis aticle concerns the institution of renunciation of the right of appeal, which is regulated by article 5058 § 3 of the Act of 17 November 1964 - Civil Proceedings Code (CPC).Renunciation of the right of appeal, which was introduced to the Polish civil procedure by an amendment to the CPC of 24 May 2000, functions only in the simplified procedure. In consequence it is impossible to renounce the right of appeal both in the standard procedure based on the general regulations and in the remaining types of procedures under CPC.This paper addresses the questions of who is authorized to renounce ius appellandi, when and in what form this can be done.Moreover this article discusses whether under article 5058 § 3 of CPC the judge is authorized to decide that renunciation of appeal is unacceptable for reasons specified in articles 203 § 4, 469 and 47913 of the CPC. The author of the article argues that on the ground of the currently binding regulations the judge does not have this kind of prerogative.The article also discusses procedural effects of the renunciation, which are different depending on the party making such declaration.Finally, this article looks into the widely disputed issue whether it is possible to cancel the declaration of renunciation of ius appellandi.

This article examines a relatively new institute of Lithuanian civil proceedings – legal restrictions on the late submission of evidence in both first instance and appellate courts. These restrictions were first established in the new Civil Procedure Code (CPC) which was adopted by Seimas of the Republic of Lithuania on 28 February 2002 (entered into force on 1 January 2003). Until then such restrictions in Lithuanian civil procedure law were not known from the time of famous Statutes of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Therefore, it seems natural that this innovation has paved the way for its real application in the courts for more than a decade. This article provides a consistent analysis of the case law (starting with the rulings of the Supreme Court of Lithuania in which the restrictions established in the law were practically denied, and up to the rulings of the last year, which already recognized the right of the courts in certain cases to refuse to accept evidence which was submitted too late). This article also reveals the aims of the CPC authors which were aimed at establishing the first instance court’s right to refuse to accept evidence which was submitted too late and system of limited appeal which establishes a general prohibition (with certain exceptions) to present evidence that was not examined in the court of first instance. One of the most important aims is the concentration of the proceedings, the prevention of abuse of procedural rights and the establishment of the first instance as the main judicial instance. The appeal procedure in the new CPC is already regarded not as a repetition or continuation of the proceedings at first instance, but as a review of the legality and validity of an existing, albeit unenforced, decision of the court of first instance. The author acknowledges that although it took a long time for the relevant provisions of the law to be actually applied in the case law, today their application is already noticeable in the daily work of courts. This leads to the conclusion that Lithuanian courts have adapted to the new CPC system and its philosophy.

В представленной статье кратко раскрывается смысл понятия такого явления, как принцип гражданского процессуального права, а также дана классификация принципов, уже существующих и утвердившихся в теории гражданского процесса. Авторы работы предприняли попытку разработать новую классификацию принципов гражданского судопроизводства, отличную от общепринятой, в которой ключевым фактором выступает субъект, которому эти принципы адресованы по своему содержанию. По результатам проведенного исследования выделены субъекты, которым адресованы действия этих принципов: адресованные только суду; адресованные только лицам, участвующим в деле; - адресованные всем субъектам гражданского судопроизводства в целом (общие). Можно вполне обосновано сказать, что новая классификация принципов гражданского процесса, в зависимости от субъекта имеет право на существование. The presented article briefly reveals the meaning of the concept of such a phenomenon as the principle of civil procedural law, and also gives a classification of the principles that already exist and are established in the theory of civil procedure. The authors of the work attempted to develop a new classification of the principles of civil proceedings, different from the generally accepted one, in which the key factor is the subject to whom these principles are addressed in their content. According to the results of the study, the subjects to whom the actions of these principles are addressed: addressed only to the court; addressed only to persons participating in the case; - addressed to all subjects of civil proceedings in general (general). It can be reasonably said that the new classification of the principles of civil procedure, depending on the subject, has the right to exist.

This chapter discusses the sources of procedural law, the general principles relevant to civil procedure established by the overriding objective, the European Convention on Human Rights, and some rules on how the courts approach construing the Civil Procedure Rules 1998 (CPR). The CPR and practice directions (PDs) are the procedural rules governing civil proceedings. The most important rule is the ‘overriding objective’ of dealing with claims justly and at proportionate cost. The most important Convention rights in civil litigation are the right to a fair trial, the right to respect for private and family life, and the right to freedom of expression.

The paper explores the compliance of the Civil Procedure Law with Article 13 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Latvia has ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in 2010; therefore it is important to study how the rights of persons with disabilities stated in the convention are respected in civil proceedings in practice with respect to effective access to justice.

Prior to the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK), the implementation of the right to inquiry was regulated in two laws, namely Law No. 6 of 1954 on the Establishment of the Rights of Inquiry of the House of Representatives (DPR) and Law No. 27 of 2009 on MPR, DPR, DPD, and DPRD. Through proposal for judicial review, MK decided the Law on the Rights of Inquiry was null and void because it was not in accordance with the presidential system adopted in the 1945 Constitution. Today, the exercise of the right of inquiry is only based on Law on MPR, DPR, DPD, and DPRD. Nonetheless, the Amendment of Law No. 27 of 2009 into Law No. 17 of 2014 could not accommodate some substances of the null and void Law on the Rights of Inquiry. The urgency of the formulation of the law on the right to inquiry, other than to carry out the Constitutional Court’s decision; are to close the justice gap of the current regulation; to avoid multi-interpretation of the norm, for example on the subject and object of the right of inquiry; and to execute the mandate of Article 20A paragraph (4) of the 1945 Constitution. The regulation on the right to inquiry shall be formulated separately from the Law on MPR, DPR, DPD and DPRD, with at least several substances to be discussed, namely: definition, mechanisms, and procedure, as well as examination of witnesses, expert, and documents. AbstrakSebelum adanya putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi (MK), pelaksanaan hak angket diatur dalam dua undang-undang, yaitu Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 1954 tentang Penetapan Hak Angket DPR (UU Angket) dan Undang-Undang Nomor 27 Tahun 2009 tentang Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat, Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat, Dewan Perwakilan Daerah, dan Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah (UU MPR, DPR, DPD, dan DPRD). Melalui permohonan pengujian undang-undang, MK membatalkan keberlakuan UU Angket karena sudah tidak sesuai dengan sistem presidensial yang dianut dalam UUD 1945. Pelaksanaan hak angket saat ini hanya berdasarkan UU MPR, DPR, DPD, dan DPRD. Penggantian UU No. 27 Tahun 2009 menjadi UU No. 17 Tahun 2014 tentang MPR, DPR, DPD, dan DPRD ternyata tidak mengakomodasi beberapa substansi UU Angket yang telah dibatalkan. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, terdapat urgensi untuk membentuk Undang-Undang tentang Hak Angket DPR RI. Urgensi tersebut, selain sebagai tindak lanjut putusan MK, juga untuk menutup celah kekosongan hukum pada pengaturan saat ini dan untuk menghindari multi-interpretasi norma, misalnya terhadap subjek dan objek hak angket. Pengaturan mengenai hak angket perlu diatur di dalam undang-undang yang terpisah dari UU MPR, DPR, DPD, dan DPRD, dengan materi muatan yang berisi tentang pengertian-pengertian, mekanisme, dan hukum acara. Pembentukan Undang-Undang tentang Hak Angket diperlukan guna memenuhi amanat Pasal 20A ayat (4) UUD 1945.
