The court systems in many countries worldwide are numerous and consist
of many levels. In most of the countries the multiplicity of court systems is
reflected in existence of courts of common and special jurisdictions. The
scope of common courts is wide and they are authorized to hear all such
cases which are not explicitly assigned to the competencies of other bodies.
The competences of special courts to administer justice are determined by
normative acts where specific cases are explicitly set out. As for the multilevel
court system it can be found both in the common and special court
systems and it envisages existence of several instances of courts within
these court systems. There are first, intermediate and supreme courts.
The grounds of admissibility of civil cases in the appellate and supreme
courts are important as in case a party fails to reach a desirable result in
the first instance court, this party has an opportunity to fill in this gap by
appealing the judgment in higher instance courts. The opportunity to appeal
reinforces the responsibility of the first instance courts when they deliver
judgments since both factual and legal aspects of the judgments are subject
to scrutiny by the appellate court. As for the court of cassation, the main
objective of it is to examine the legal aspect of the case, i.e. whether the
legal norm has been correctly applied and how correctly the content of
the norm has been understood by the court which applied it (See 1 ).
