Зміст принципу змагальності у новій редакції ЦПК / The Content of the Adversarial Principle in the New Edition of the CPC

Abstract

Under the new procedural legal regulation, the regulation of the adversarial principle in civil proceedings acquired new features. Its first element is the equal rights of participants in the case for the implementation of all procedural rights and obligations provided by law. Part 2 of Art. 12 of the CPC actually specifies and develops the provisions of Art. 6 of the CPC, since giving the participants of the case equal opportunities for the implementation of their procedural rights and the fulfillment of procedural obligations fully corresponds to the essence of the principle of equality before the law and the court. However, the actual competitiveness is absent in this position. The second element of the adversarial principle is the need for each party to prove circumstances relevant to the case to which they refer as a basis for their claims or objections except in cases established by the CPC. This provision really characterizes the principle under consideration and its value lies in the distribution of the burden of proof. The third element is the role of the court in the evidentiary activity. Provisions such as court guidance, assistance in resolving a dispute by reaching an agreement between the parties and preventing abuse of procedural rights are not characteristic of the adversarial principle. Provisions on clarifying the procedural rights and obligations of participants and assisting the participants in process of realizing them the rights provided by the CPC refer to the properties of the adversarial principle. The article deals with conclusions of a theoretical nature and proposals for clarification of legislation.
