Civil procedure attends to dynamic field of judicial experience; the one is affirming the existence of rights, the other is their effective being and peaceful practice. Whether a right is denied or its practice is forbidden, we need effective redress devices. Civil procedure attends to relationships between claimant and defendant. Before studying how proceedings are regulated, however, we need to describe the aim which they can pursue, that is protection forms, which overlap to different kinds of manageable action. We need to specify prerequisities of Courts before which the proceedings is brought, as well as qualities of parties involved in the proceedings, and devices that each of them can use. These general topics concern the first part of the course. In the second and third part we will examine rules of ordinary proceedings before lower courts. In the fourth part we will examine appeals.
