BILLS UNDER DISCUSSION CIVIL PROCEDURE CODE AMENDMENT The Czech Government approved a Civil Procedure Code amendment that could enter into effect as early as next year.
The amendment addresses the Supreme Court’s growing workload and
reflects a Czech Constitutional Court decision repealing the provision of
§ 237(1)(c) of the Civil Procedure Code (enabling a petition for an appellate review to be lodged, if the court of final appeal concludes that the merits in law of a contested judgment are of fundamental
importance). The new provisions should strengthen the Supreme Court’s
role as the body standardizing case law and speed up the electronic issuance of judicial orders to pay.
