In this article, a comparative legal and empirical study of the principle of good faith in law and the prevention of abuse of procedural rights as one of its element are conducted. These phenomena should be recognized as relevant objects for research, given that in civil procedural Ukraine specific measures were taken to prevent abuse of procedural rights for the first time, during the reform of the legislation in 2017, and unfortunately such actions occur as a habits of legal reality of Ukraine. in court practice quite often. Given the need to ensure effective protection of rights through timely and proportionate consideration of the case by the courts, their proper application is essential for science and practice.

The article discusses the abuse of procedural rights in Polish and European civil procedure law and the notion of private and public interest. The issue of abuse of procedural rights is a category of applying the law. At the current stage of development there is no simple transposition of the issue of legal interest on the institution of abuse of procedural right; undeniably, the lack of current and real interest, with the assumption of fulfillment of other prerequisites, may be contemplated in categories of abuse of right by the court under ius dicere. In the Polish law it is not sufficient to analyse this phenomenon solely in the sphere of procedural locus standi and there shall be the interest in taking a specific step. There also shall be the awareness of the party taking the step as to its inadmissibility and intention to harm the other party, as e.g. in case of fictitious actions. In the European area it is additionally necessary to create methodology and general approach to abuse of right in European civil proceedings and finding compromising approach towards understanding of the notion of the interest in Roman and Germanic law systems. Because application and development of the law due to lack of procedural fairness and good faith is rather difficult to verify and to define, the advantage of adopting admissibility of a separate international institution of abuse of procedural right would lie in the possibility of applying a universal approach towards abuse of procedural right in all member states. Thiswould mean that each court of the member state would apply the same standard of the test. Finally, the alternative use of exclusively national concepts of abuse of procedural right cannot be continued. It can be assumed that confirmation of the existence of the abuse of European procedural right in a given case would require existence of objective and subjective factors.

The "estoppel" concept and the issues of applying the "estoppel" rule in international law and Russian civil law are considered in this paper. Procedural legislation novels stipulated in the Concept of the Unified Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, approved by the Committee on Civil, Criminal, Arbitration and Procedural Legislation of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation on December 8, 2014, are noted here. The authors propose amendments to the civil procedural legislation, which will allow to apply the "estoppel" rule in civil proceedings. Particularly the authors propose to supplement Article 12 of the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation with part 3, including in it the obligation of the party to act in good faith in the exercise and protection of their rights and obligations. The authors indicate what exactly should be understood as unfair behaviour in this context.

This paper studies the principles of good faith and the cooperation between judges and parties, which are considered as highly relevant in current civil procedural law. According to many scholars, a new approach to defining their roles allows to overcome the basic urgent problems of modern civil justice – duration, high costs and, to some extent, the complexity of the trial. At the same time, its implementation leads to a positive impact on ensuring the efficiency and access to justice, which are integral parts of the rule of law. The evolution of the idea of directing litigation to peaceful compromise of parties and settling their dispute, has become of tremendous importance since the middle of the last century and today is considered as one of the inherent features of modern litigation. The idea ofgood faith in participating in the process was much developed in the first codes of civil procedure in Europe, in particular, in Austrian Code of Civil Procedure of 1898 and in French Code of Civil Procedure of 1806. The national legal doctrine contains the reflection of F. Klein's research, in particular the loyal cooperation between a judge's and parties' ideas. Later the national legislation of most European states applied the abovementioned during the reforms. Within the ELI-Unidroit Project of European Rules of Civil Procedure the Working Group on Procedural Rights used the idea of court and parties cooperation as the main ground and proposed to joint responsibility introduce with the aim of fair and just trial and avoiding of the traditional problems of two procedure models (A. Uzelac). The provisions of civil procedural law of many states, in particular of Ukraine, have more fully realized the idea of inadmissibility of abusing the procedural rights, which are justly regarded as an element of the principle of cooperation of the court and the parties in civil proceedings.

The article is dedicated to investigation of counter-security as a novelty of the reform of Ukrainian civil procedure legislation. The analysis of rules of the current procedural legislation on counter-security as a novelty of the civil process in Ukraine was made in the article. The determination of features of the institute of counter-security in the mechanism of civil proceedings was given. The role of counter-security in the civil process was identified. The conclusion was drawn that through the institute of counter-security, the principle of equality of parties is ensured, which is manifested in the equal assignment of the defendant to such procedural rights which are effectively identical to the rights of the plaintiff. Therefore, the defendant was granted effective protection against the claim by virtue of the new institute. It is stated that the counter-security should be seen as a way of preventing the plaintiff's abuse of procedural rights and offsetting the potential consequences. The introduction of counter-security is a clear step forward to European standards of quality and efficiency in the administration of justice, however, by examining civil procedural law and jurisprudence, the conclusion was made that the institution is not regulated at this stage of its establishment and application.

One of the most important changes to the legal regulations in 2019 is the reform of the civil procedure introduced by the Act of July 4, 2019 amending the Act - Code of Civil Procedure and certain other acts. One of the most important goals of this reform was to improve the implementation of the civil right to a fair trial. According to the authors of the reform, the existing solutions in terms of the manner of conducting civil proceedings have worked well under conditions of a relatively low burden on civil courts. Nowadays, when the number of civil cases is gradually increasing, the legislator’s efforts are required that will realistically simplify and accelerate the proceedings in these cases. As part of the amendment in question, two far-reaching changes were made to two means of appeal, basic for civil proceedings, i.e. an appeal and a complaint

An analysis of the amendments made to the Constitution of the Russian Federation in 2020 made it possible to conclude that the provisions concerning the judicial protection of fundamental human and civil rights and freedoms are stable. The role and content of the legal regulation of the participation of the prosecutor in the implementation on behalf of certain participants in civil proceedings of this right emphasizes the specifics of his procedural position. At the same time, the existence in the legal doctrine and in law enforcement practice of various positions that determine the legal status of the prosecutor in the exercise of the constitutional right to judicial protection, and the lack of a unified approach to resolving this issue give rise to constant interest in this problem. In this study, through the prism of analyzing the content of the procedural rights and duties of the prosecutor, the grounds for the implementation by the prosecutor of constitutional guarantees for protecting the interests of society and the state protected by law, the determinism of his legal status in civil proceedings is substantiated.
