ON THE NEED OF MOVING THE BOUNDARIES OF THE PRINCIPLE OF PROCESS ECONOMY IN CIVIL LITIGATION

Abstract

With the longest and fastest commercial airline flight from one end of the world to the
other only 17 and a half hours, it is still unthinkable for some litigation to take years. At a
time when almost every second teenager has a mobile phone with a million applications, it
is inadmissible for the procedural legislator to “fail” to regulate the legal regime for online
trials. Hence the litigation of the XXI century in terms of speed must adapt to the trends of
modern times to survive. Exactly because of this the subject of analysis of this paper are the
new frontiers of the principle of process economy in litigation in accordance with the new
draft Law on Civil Litigation of North Macedonia, as well as the need for its amendment in
order to comply with modern European procedural standards.
