Письма судей и органов судейского сообщества как объект проверки в порядке гражданского и административного судопроизводства

Pavlova M.

The procedures for citizens to challenge the decisions, action (inaction) of state bodies and officials are widespread in Russian procedural law. Notwithstanding  the clear, at first glance, regulation of objects of verification and list of persons, whose decisions, action (inaction) can be appealed in court, in practice there're still controversial cases when citizens and organizations try to protest the letters from judges containing answers on procedural and non-procedural issues  arising during the resolution of the case on the merits. Particularly it's about determining the legal nature of letters from judges on the return of statements of claim, on the termination of correspondence with the party; letters sent by court staff (consultants, etc.); letters from bodies of the judicial community. In order to qualify the letters from judges that are not issued as a court ruling the author offers to determine signs of judicial rulings in them. As for letters sent by court staff  and bodies of the judicial community the author, based the object and subject criteria, concludes that it is unacceptable to appeal such documents in civil or administrative proceedings.
