Abstract

The problem of paying legal costs when courts resolve a class action is considered. The need to enshrine in tax legislation a special decision on the amount and procedure for paying state duty when filing a class action is noted. The state fee must be paid at a time when filing a claim, and in a fixed amount, which does not change depending on the joining of group members after the initiation of proceedings in the case. The author criticizes the approach currently formed in judicial practice to determining the amount of state duty according to the rules of the active participation model. Attention is also drawn to the inappropriateness of establishing a rule on the need to comply with the notarial form of an agreement on the distribution of legal costs between participants in a group of persons.
