ABSTRACT. The article pays attention to the issue of theoretical understanding of the stage of proceedings in cases on newly discovered circumstances, in particular the problem of definition and the key term of the stage of civil process “Proceeding in civil cases in connection with newly discovered circumstances” in accordance with the legislation of Ukraine – the concept of newly discovered circumstances.

The fact is that despite the significant role of this term in characterizing the stages of civil proceedings on newly discovered circumstances, its definition is absent in civil procedural legislation. In addition, in the scientific, educational and methodological literature this issue is not given the necessary attention, there is still no consensus on the content of the concept of “newly revealed circumstances”. For sufficient analysis and study of this topic, we paid considerable attention to the study of the institute for the review of judicial decisions on newly discovered circumstances, in accordance with the requirements of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and the practice of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the right to a fair hearing in civil cases.

Keywords: newly discovered circumstances, exceptional circumstances, civil process, right to a fair trial, civil proceeding.
