Courts will examine all civil cases at initial stage

The courts of law will take over the competence of trying civil cases at the initial stage. This is one of the new norms stipulated in the amendments to the Code of Civil Procedure approved by the Government, Info Prim Neo reports. Minister of Justice Oleg Efrim said many of the amendments refer to the powers of the courts. The civil and administrative cases will be examined only by the lower courts. The powers of the Supreme Court of Justice and the Court of Appeals will be limited. They will only check the legality of the court decisions. The amendments specify the participants in the civil lawsuit, including the role played by the prosecutor. The Prosecutor’s Office will only investigate the criminal cases and will not double the powers of other authorities that defend their own rights or the rights of other persons involved in the civil lawsuit. Information technology will be used to summon persons, including through email and fax, so as to reduce the period of the trial. The sides involved in the trial will be able to appeal the court decision within 30 days. The Ministry of Justice said that after the legislative body adopts the new provisions, the civil procedure norms will become clearer and more coherent. After making changes to the Code of Penal Procedure, amendments were proposed to the Code of Civil Procedure in accordance with the action plan for implementing the justice sector reform strategy. They are aimed at increasing people’s access to justice and a fair trial.
