FAQ
- When can a complaint to resume proceedings be filed?
-
An action for resumption of proceedings can be filed if:
- the constitution of a court at any stage of proceedings was contrary to provisions of law or if a party was not properly represented or was deprived of the right to defend its interests;
- a judgment was based on a forged document or was issued as a result of a crime;
- new circumstances or means of evidence, unavailable before, have come to light;
- it was revealed that the case had been previously resolved;
- the legal basis of the decision was declared unconstitutional.
Any such action should be filed at the court that issued the judgment within three months of the date when the party learned of the grounds justifying the appeal, and in any event no later than five years after judgment was given (except for a situation where a party was not properly represented or was deprived of the right to defend its interests).
