The Main Problems of the Development of the Institution of Conciliation in a Civil Procedure

Abstract

The article deals with current problems of development of the Institute of conciliation procedures in civil proceedings. The author analyzes the point of view of scientists about the concept of “conciliation procedures”, on the basis of which he identifies a number of characteristic features. The study of the legal framework on this issue allows us to systematize the key types of conciliation procedures in civil proceedings-negotiations, mediation, judicial reconciliation. Despite the fact that these procedures are reflected in the law, they are rarely used in practice, which is due to some problems, in particular, the low level of legal literacy of the population; the lack of well-developed information work with citizens; people’s distrust of the new legal institution; the rather high cost of services provided by mediators, etc. All this requires prompt resolution, which will reduce the burden on the judicial authorities and improve the quality of the process.
