Civil cases occupy the largest part of all cases considered by the courts. Whether it is the registration of property rights, the conclusion of an agreement, causing property damage, opening a deposit in a bank or providing services – all these actions are governed by the norms of civil law. Labor, land, housing, family relations are also considered by the courts as civil cases.
There are a huge number of categories of disputes arising from civil relations: recognition of a transaction as invalid, reclamation of property from someone else’s illegal possession, recognition of a person as incapacitated, recovery of funds, establishment of facts of legal significance, eviction and many others.
Consideration by the court of a civil case is initiated solely on the initiative of the interested party by filing a claim with a court of general jurisdiction with a certain requirement (s) against the defendant.
Competent execution of the claim, determination of the circle of respondents and the precise formulation of claims are the most important factors in the successful resolution of the dispute in favor of the plaintiff. For the defendant, the key is to refute the position of the plaintiff, to provide arguments for the illegality and groundlessness of the claims. When considering a case by a court, the parties provide relevant evidence to confirm their claims and objections.
The courts of first instance, which consider the case on the merits, are the courts of general jurisdiction, whose decisions are reviewed by the courts of appeal, and the verification of the legality of the decisions of the courts of first and appeal instances is carried out by the court of cassation – the Supreme Court.
