AUTONOMY OF FAMILY RELATIONS AND CIVIL PROCEDURE
The article examines the ontology of the autonomy of family relations and its impact on the independence of family law as a branch of law. It is proved that the independence of family law as a branch of law, due by the nature of family relations and their autonomy, determines the need to regulate family relations by an independent codified normative legal act containing material norms of law. Thus, it is concluded that the branch autonomy does not determine the existence of a separate system of courts for the settlement of disputes connected with application of norms of law and an independent justice. Since all family disputes can be considered by courts of General jurisdiction within the existing types of legal proceedings (claim proceedings, special proceedings, writ proceedings), the creation of specialized family courts in the Russian Federation is impractical. However, for the proper consideration and resolution of family disputes, based on the specifics of their subject composition, the subject of dispute, the nature of relationships, degree of procedural activity of the court, it is necessary to supplement Civil procedural code of the Russian Federation separate chapters containing the rules governing the procedural peculiarities of consideration of some categories of family disputes.
