Description
Summary:The right to a trial within a reasonable time as part of the right to a fair trial is one of the fundamental human rights that belongs to all people without distinction. The problem of the length of court proceedings can be characterized as a global problem that exists in countries around the world. The general rule that arose from the current analysis of the situation in this area is that the countries of the Anglo-Saxon legal system have more effective protection of the right to trial within a reasonable time than the countries of the European-Continental legal system, where in some countries the protection of this right is a systemic problem. The author in the paper presents the legal systems of certain countries, the good and the bad of their legal regulations in order to find new solutions for problems in this area.
