The first part of the paper presents issues concerning designation of another court of equivalent standing to the court which has ceased to operate to examine urgent cases. Further on, the article discusses the significance of the state of epidemic emergency or the state of epidemic announced because of COVID-19 for time limits in civil proceedings, including, in turn, suspension of commencement and discontinuation of the commenced time limits in civil proceedings have been discussed. Then, the issue of admissibility and effectiveness of performing acts in civil proceedings during the state of epidemic has been raised. Having discussed exclusion of open sittings and trials during the state of epidemic, the author has described selected aspects of judicial enforcement and proceedings to secure claims during that period.
