Abstract

In the beginning of the year 2002 the Seimas has passed the new Code of civil procedure of the Republic of Lithuania, which will come into force on the 1st of January 2003. Although the main novelties of this legal document are related to the first instance procedure, the appellate procedure has undergone plenty of reforms as well.
The aim of this article is to compare the provisions of the new Code of civil procedure, regulating the appellate procedure, with the similar provisions of the Code of civil procedure of 1964, in order to disclose the main changes of legal regulation. As the limited scope of the article prevents the possibility to disclose all the novelties, the article deals only with the main ones. In addition, the article aims to spotlight some inaccuracies of the new legal regulation as well as possible problems of functioning of the new appeal.
