Abstract
Judicial protection of electoral rights has always occupied a separate place in Russian procedural legislation. The electoral process is characterized by its transience and stage-by-stage nature, with this in mind, the law provides for special requirements for subjects of the right to apply to the court for protection of electoral rights, as well as for deadlines for such treatment. This article is devoted to discussing these issues through illustrating them with examples from court practice.
The author analyzes the positions of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation on the issues of specific requirements for the subject of the right to appeal to the court and the time limits for such appeal in cases of protection of electoral rights, formulated both in the relevant resolution of the Plenum and in resolving specific administrative cases, as well as the legal approaches of courts when considering administrative cases related to electoral conflicts.
The purpose and objective of the research is to study the legal approaches of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
