AS A TOOL OF A FAIR PROCEDURE

T.V. SAKHNOVA,

Doctor of Legal Sciences, Professor,

Head of the Department of Civil Procedure of the Siberian Federal University

Traditionally, the problems of judicial examination were investigated in the context of

judicial evidence, however, in modern conditions of the materialization of civil procedure,

judicial examination and its legislative concept can be understood within a fair trial

term. The author of the article considers the doctrine in the field of this issue, the judicial

examination is analyzed as a phenomenon from various sides. The author highlights its

procedural concept, – as a tool for the implementation of a fair procedure, it also dwells

more on psychological expertise and its features. “Fair expertise as a way to implement

a fair proceedings” comes up against a number of traditional, but still unsolved problems,

including discrepancies in the categories of psychology in jurisprudence, filling them with

a different meaning. The article raises the question of the wording of the norms contained in

the codes of the Russian Federation, which form the general legal prerequisite for the use of

forensic examination. With the external similarity of formulations, the concept is different

in the codes, which gives rise to various practical difficulties. The author identifies areas that

need to be improved in domestic jurisprudence, and expresses her opinion on the concept of

conducting a judicial examination, which would respond to the idea of a fair procedure.

Keywords: judicial examination; fairness; civil procedure; evidence; willigness.
