This section includes the part of the comment to the Civil Procedural Code of the Russian Federation prepared by the group of authors under the direction of the Doctor of Legal Sciences, Professor P.V. Krasheninnikov (CCP of the Russian Federation, arts. 1–13). Le civil legal procedure is an activity of the court, the persons participating in a case, and other participants of the process regulated by the civil procedural legislation and directed on consideration and settlement of disputes arising from civil, family, labor, and in the cases provided by the law, – from other relations, including public relations. Le legislation on civil legal procedure consists of only the federal legislation with sources not below the level of the federal law, it does not include bylaws: decrees of the Russian President, resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation, acts of federal bodies of the executive authorities. Le treaties are also included into the sources of the civil procedural legislation. Le authors note that waiver of the right to go to the court in any form is invalid. Le ground for institution of a civil case is the application of the person for protection of the rights, freedoms and interests protected by the law. It should follow from the application submitted by the interested person that this person demands protection of the rights, freedoms and (or) legitimate interests. In certain cases persons can file the suit to the court in protection of not their own rights and legitimate interests, but the rights and legitimate interests of other persons. These cases must be provided by the code or the federal law, but not by bylaws.
