EXTRAORDINARY LEGAL REMEDIES WITH REGARD TO THE SOLUTIONS OF THE PREVIOUS CIVIL PROCEEDINGS LAWS

Abstract

One of the features of procedural proceedings including the civil proceedings too, is a possibility of declaring extraordinary legal remedies. After the decision made by the first-instance courts, there is a regular remedy being declared, and an extraordinary legal remedy can be issued to the final decisions. In this paper, the author will show the development and types of extraordinary remedies, from the first Law on Civil Proceedings brought in 1929 (entered into force in 1932) to the applicable Law on Civil Proceedings from 2011. By using the historical, normative and comparative methods, there will be shown both the positive and negative sides of extraordinary legal remedies in the Serbian legislation.
