New Realities of Revision of Judicial Acts that Have Entered into Force under New Circumstances in Civil and Administrative Proceedings

The paper analyzes amendments in procedural legislation (Federal Law No. 473‑FZ dated 30 December 2021 «On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation») that have been relatively recently introduced into the institution for the revision of judicial acts that entered into force, due to new and newly discovered circumstances. The author points out a fragmentary nature and inconsistency of ideas, mistakes made when making, in fact, a revolutionary decision on the need to grant persons not participating in constitutional proceedings the right to review a previously resolved case. According to the author, adoption of the above changes may radically change the established, also in other legal systems, essential nature of an exceptional and extraordinary mechanism for resuming a case due to new and newly discovered circumstances. It is also noted how this innovation of the legislator may negatively affect the stability of judicial acts (the principle of legal certainty), which in the end may be fraught for such an important legal category as stability in civil law relationships.
