An institution for the service of procedural documents, which ensures a smooth running of court proceedings, is very important in the civil process. The essence of the institution for the service of procedural documents is to ensure fast and smooth service of procedural documents to the final recipient, i.e. to the parties of the civil proceedings. A proper implementation of the service of procedural documents ensures a timely acquaintance of the parties with the documents in the case and court decisions. A civil case could not be settled in the absence of this institution. 852366200 The current legal regulation provides for several methods of service of procedural documents. However, the main and most desirable method is the service of procedural documents in person, i.e. the recipient receives the documents personally. Yet, the service of procedural documents to the recipient in person is not always possible; therefore, other methods of service are provided for in the civil proceedings, for example the service of procedural documents to a curator or by public notice. The service of procedural documents by electronic means is undoubtedly becoming more and more important as it is much faster and cheaper service of documents. For certain reasons, it is not always possible for the party of the proceedings to obtain a procedural document personally, for example when the party is in the place of imprisonment. For this reason, the rules of civil procedure provide for special regulatory features, the essence and purpose of which is as follows: to serve the procedural document to the party of the proceedings in person. Only a proper service of procedural documents ensures the process of civil proceedings and the implementation of the basic principles of the civil law; therefore, it is very important to know the essence of this institution and its proper implementation. |
