participation in the judicial process

Abstract. Abstract: Court accessibility, as an element of the rule of law, plays a significant role in ensuring citizens' right to a fair trial. In modern conditions, it is necessary to analyze the main barriers that may limit public participation in the judiciary. It is argued that removing such barriers can encourage more active recourse to the courts for the protection of legitimate rights and interests, as well as increase public involvement in the judicial process, both through direct participation in court proceedings and through public oversight mechanisms.
