The article describes procedural place of Claimants and other persons involved in legal proceedings investigating applications for grants of compensation for breach of the right for a trial within reasonable time limits or the right for the execution of court order within reasonable time limits.

The goal of the article is to prove that the indicated category of participants of civil legal proceedings should necessarily be included to the category of Persons Taking Part in the Case.

Jurisprudence theory explains the concept of a Person Taking Part in the Case as “the subject of civil procedural legal relations juristically interested in the result of legal proceedings and possessing through their involvement the right to procedurally act and influence the process of the legal proceedings”. (M.A. Vikut).

Article 34 of the Code of Civil Procedure of Russian Federation establishes a limited list of participants of civil legal proceedings who are included in the category of Persons Taking Part in the Case.

Seen as the persons taking part in the case shall be the parties, third persons, public prosecutor and persons applying to the court for the protection of the rights, freedoms and lawful interests of the other persons or joining the process for the purposes of giving the conclusion on the grounds stipulated in Articles 4, 46 and 47 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the claimants and other interested persons in cases of the special procedure and in the cases arising from public legal relations.

Persons Taking Part in the Case possess particular characteristics which indicate that these persons are to be included in the indicated group.

Claimants and other persons involved in legal proceedings investigating applications for grants of compensation for breach of the right for a trial within reasonable time limits or the right for the execution of court order within reasonable time limits, possess all the characteristics of the Persons Taking Part in the Case:

1. They are participants of the civil legal proceedings

3. They possess legal power limited and established by law to make court decisions.
4. They are juristically interested in the examination and resolution of the case and this involvement is subjective (personal).

Keywords: Claimants and other persons involved in legal proceedings investigating applications for grants of compensation for breach of the right for a trial within reasonable time limits or the right for the execution of court order within reasonable time limits; persons taking part in the case
