Abstract

From the moment of becoming valid the law of Ukraine «On amendments to the Commercial procedural code of Ukraine, Civil procedural code of Ukraine the Code of administrative procedure of Ukraine and other legislative acts» of 3 October 2017 jurisdiction of courts courts is defined through the concept of «jurisdiction». This article considers the practical and theoretical significance of the amendments made by this legislative act to the current Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine. The significance of civil jurisdiction and its classification are revealed. To date, the science of civil procedural law has not developed a unified approach to the definition of «jurisdiction» and «civil jurisdiction». With regard to substantive and subjective jurisdiction, it is emphasized that these aspects should be taken into account together. Territorial jurisdiction is defined in the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine as jurisdiction. The instance jurisdiction determines the scope of powers of the court of each link of the judicial system of Ukraine, and the territorial (jurisdiction) determines the limits of powers between courts within one judicial link to hear cases in the first instance. In general, the rules of territorial jurisdiction are less strict than the rules of substantive jurisdiction, as the level of the court is considered appropriate, but violations of the rules of territorial jurisdiction may create additional inconveniences, which, however, usually do not objectively affect the content of the decision. The difficulty of establishing the jurisdiction of the court at this stage of updating the judicial system of Ukraine is due to significant changes in procedural law. The process of harmonization of procedural legislation has contributed to the consolidation of a single conceptual apparatus, which has so far been used mostly at the theoretical level. Thus, at the legislative level, the jurisdiction of the courts of Ukraine is determined exclusively by the jurisdiction, which in the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine, the Commercial Procedure Code of Ukraine and the Code of Administrative Procedure of Ukraine is divided into substantive and subjective, instance, territorial. However, the analyzed provisions of the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine demonstrate the need to further improve the rules of civil jurisdiction.
