Features of Consideration of Some Categories of Cases by US Courts

Abstract

The author defines approaches to solving problematic issues related to the need for judicial, self-defense, without advocacy, on social indicators by citizens of the United States of America, which in most cases predetermines the deliberate loss of such persons in the judicial process. This is due to the legislative complexities and heterogeneity of the procedural rules for resolving disputes in different US states, the lack of the necessary skills and experience of the defendants to participate independently in trials. The author cites the segmented data of so-called "maps of legal deserts", which testify to the availability of specialists in the field of legal proceedings that facilitate the provision of proper legal assistance. Also, comparative features of the legal provision of court cases involving animals based on a comparison of legal approaches developed in the Middle Ages in a number of European countries and in the USA are also being investigated. The author defines the main possible areas of harmonization of the norms of the national legislation of the Russian Federation and the laws of individual states of the United States on procedural matters in this area, within the framework of international private law.
