Laws in many ways lead our lives. It is vital to try to understand them. But where to start? After all, the normative acts that are mandatory for implementation, not only a large number, but they can be attributed to various types of legal documents. So, for example, the Constitution has the greatest power among all their diversity. There is a hierarchy of strength of different types of legal documents. At its very top, of course, is the Constitution of Russia. Then (in descending order) federal constitutional laws follow . Next come federal laws (including codes).
What are the codes
Codes have great legal force and constitute one of the main parts of the legislation. Each of them regulates a certain sphere of activity. In the Russian legislation there are twenty different codes. The area to which the Civil Procedure Code refers is the relations that arise in the work of courts of general jurisdiction. Such courts are also called civil courts. They can be considered cases in which a private person challenges a normative act adopted by a government body in accordance with established rules. In some cases, activities related to the business sphere may be disputed here. However, in this area, some judicial matters are to be considered only in the arbitration court.
