In addition, the procedural periods, which have been earlier extended due to the quarantine, will expire 20 days after the new law enters into force, and during this period the participants of the case and other interested persons may address the court with a request for their extension.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<strong>CPLR Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\tThe &ldquo;Anti-coronavirus&rdquo; law, adopted on March 30, provides for an automatic extension of procedural periods in of civil, commercial and administrative cases for the quarantine period, which in practice threatened to freeze justice, as reported by the CPLR experts (see political <a href=\"https:\/\/pravo.org.ua\/ua\/review\/points\/March_points_2020\/#%D0%A3%D1%85%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B9%20%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%BD%20%D0%B4%D0%BB%D1%8F%20%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%82%D1%8C%D0%B1%D0%B8%20%D0%B7%20%D0%BA%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B2%D1%96%D1%80%D1%83%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%BC%20%D1\">points<\/a> for March 23-30, 2020). The draft law, which was introduced by the people&rsquo;s deputies, partially allows to address this problem.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\tAt the same time, the draft law has the potential for improvement:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t\tit is unclear from the draft law whether the court has the right to decline the request of the case participant, whether it is the sole and unconditional reason for renewal\/extension of the time period without the need to give reasons. It is more expedient to establish the authority of the court, upon a substantiated request of the case participant, to recognize a valid reason for missing the time limit or the inability to take the necessary procedural action within the determined period and to renew\/extend the period. This reason must be related to quarantine;<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t\tthe court may only renew\/extend the term for the entire quarantine period, which is unreasonable. The court should be empowered to determine the length of the extension, depending on the nature and validity of the reason given in the statement of the participant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\tIn addition, as previously recommended by the CPLR experts, it should be foreseen that in cases on administrative and disciplinary offences, the quarantine period is not included in the limitation period and in the procedural periods.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\tTaking the above into account, it is advisable to support the draft law with a view of its further improvement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Event On April 23, the draft law &ldquo;On Amendments to the Economic Procedure Code of Ukraine, the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine, the Administrative Procedure Code of Ukraine on the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"authors":[178],"source":[],"class_list":["post-10085","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bez-kategoriyi","authors-cplr"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>People\u2019s deputies suggest &quot;unfreeze&quot; litigation in civil, administrative and commercial cases<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Latest news from the Center of Policy and Legal Reform.
