A complaint to any authority is filed when the result is already available, but it does not satisfy you for one reason or another. The right to appeal is governed by the following legislative acts: in civil cases - Article 320 of the Civil Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, in criminal cases - Art. 125 and 127 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.
Instructions
Step 1
If a complaint is sent to the court of appeal against a verdict or decision of the court, you need to file it within the deadline set for the appeal (10 days from the date of the decision in the final form). The complaint is filed through the court that issued the contested decision.
Step 2
Be sure to draw up the complaint itself in as many copies as you will be shown in court. Make sure you have a copy on which the court clerk will put the “Complaint Accepted” mark, date and signature on it.
Step 3
Make a competent statement of claim, as the success of your case depends on it. If you are not strong in legal matters, use the services of lawyers.
Step 4
Attach all necessary documents to the complaint, for example, a court decision. If the complaint is due for payment, provide a receipt for payment of the state fee.
Step 5
Do not call or go to court to find out the result. Words can have a moral impact on you, but you cannot "sew" them to the case. Even if you are summoned and verbally announced that your complaint is not satisfied or does not meet the requirements, demand a written response from the court staff. If you refuse, file your complaint privately with the appellate authority.
Step 6
To send a full-fledged complaint, be sure to indicate in it the correct name of the appellate instance, your contact information. In the text, indicate which decision you will appeal. Specify the name of the district court here. In the final part, formulate your requirements correctly and clearly.
Step 7
When filing a complaint privately, do not send it in a simple letter. Be sure to use a certified translation with a notification. It is worth a penny, but it can greatly ease your worries. When sending a complaint to the court, do not consider it something "out of the ordinary". For court officials, your complaints are completely commonplace.
