The repeal of a regulatory legal act and the institution of reconsideration of a case under new circumstances in civil procedure

Introduction: the article analyzes the possibility of reconsidering a case under new circumstances in the event that a regulatory legal act is repealed. Two grounds for such repeal are distinguished: the recognition of a regulatory legal act as having no effect by a court and the cancellation of a regulatory legal act by the law-maker or by a higher-ranking body in cases provided for by law. The article deals with nonjudicial repeal of regulatory legal acts in the context of the institution of reconsidering a case under new circumstances.
