This work is devoted to identifying the significance of the appeal proceedings in civil cases. We emphasize that the right to judicial protection is one of the fundamental human rights. To achieve this goal, we set the following tasks: define the concept of appeal proceedings; characterize the essence of the appeal proceedings in civil cases. In the course of studying the issue, we use the methods of scientific knowledge, based on the results of which the appropriate conclusions are drawn: despite the wide recognition of the appeal proceedings in the Russian Federation, we note the need to improve the efficiency of this institution due to certain omissions in the legislation. As a result, we define what should be understood as an appeal – consideration of cases that have not entered into legal force. By virtue of this, the importance and significance of the appeal proceedings as an appeal tool, as well as the direct correction of judicial errors, is noted both by the norms of domestic legislation and by international human rights bodies. The indicated gaps in the legislation show the absence of clearly defined boundaries, which creates problems in determining the value and essence of the appeal proceedings both at the theoretical and practical levels. In particular, there is a controversy on the appeal proceedings’ importance. However, the doctrine identifies two main elements, the essence of the appeal proceedings is: 1) the repetition of the case; 2) verification of the judicial act. Nevertheless, despite the high prevalence of appeals in civil proceedings, the issue of improving the effectiveness of this institution is still relevant, which leads to the inefficiency of civil proceedings in general.

It is indicated that restriction of the access to justice for consideration of the criminal procedure dispute in accordance with the Article 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation is also established by the practice developed in law enforcement for evaluation of the complaint prior to its consideration involving  the parties with the possibility of making a decision on whether to remit or reject the complaint in the absence of legislatively specified grounds, which directly affects the number of addressed complaints. The conclusion is made on the need to specify the grounds for remitting the complaint of an applicant filed in accordance with the Article 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, for the purpose of excluding the possibility of decision made by the court that is not based on the law on remitting or rejecting the complaint for consideration (the Article 125 of Code of Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation).

The article researches the peculiarities of return of court fees in connection with the completion of a civil case without a court judgement in the form of leaving the application without consideration of legal regulation, analyzes the issues of this institute in judicial practice, and provides suggestions for improving its legal regulation. Attention has been drawn to the fact that since the court fee is one of the basic categories of access to justice, and therefore an element of the right of a person to judicial protection enjoyment, and the need to ensure the balance of interests of the state and the individual in regulating the legal basis of court fees payment, the grounds for the application of this procedural institute must be exhaustive and may not be subject to extended interpretation. Based on the comparative analysis of the legal regulation of the return of court fees institute, and in particular the legislative regulation of such grounds for its application as completion of civil proceedings without a court judgement in the form of leaving the application without consideration, it was found a legislative tendency to reduce the list of the very grounds for leaving the application without consideration, with the use of which the return of court fees is allowed. Examples of jurisprudence in the field of application of each ground of leaving the application without consideration through the prism of the institute of return of court fees have been given. Attention has been drawn to the fact that although in the process of amending the civil procedural legislation, which took place with the adoption of the Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to the Commercial Procedural Code of Ukraine, Civil Procedural Code of Ukraine, Code of Administrative Procedure of Ukraine and other legislative acts", such grounds as leaving by the plaintiff (his/her representative) of the courtroom was removed from the "general list" of grounds for leaving the application without consideration under Part 1 of Art. 257 CPC of Ukraine, it still exists, because it was left by the legislator in the article governing the consequences of non-appearance at the hearing of the parties (Part 6 of Art. 223 CPC of Ukraine). It has been constituted that item 4 of Part 1 Art. 7 of the Law of Ukraine "On Court Fees" provides the opportunity to return the court fee in case of completion of a civil case without a court judgement in the form of leaving the application without consideration on all grounds except those that constitute exceptions by law, and in particular the grounds established by items 3, 5 and 9 of Part 1 Art. 257 CPC of Ukraine, as well as Part 6 of Art. 223 CPC of Ukraine.

In the course of the ongoing reform of civil legislation the Civil Code of Russian Federation was amended in 2018, including Art. 256 (paragraph 2, item 4) regarding the legal fate of common joint property of spouses after the death of one of them. In the notarial practice the question arose in this regard as to whether the surviving spouse can be considered the owner of the property in the absence of state registration of the ownership right and, accordingly, in the future to be the heir to such property. This predetermines the question about the meaning of the state registration itself as a legal procedure in civil proceedings. It is concluded that the state registration for the case of paragraph 2, item 4 of Art. 256 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation is not of a legal nature and has a procedural meaning of formalization of legal relations. Thus, this is one of the exceptions from the general rule on the need for state registration for the recognition of the existence of ownership of real estate.
