Revisiting the Right to Self-Representation in Civil Proceedings

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The article discusses the right to self-representation in civil cases in Great Britain. It evaluates the assumptions underlying the said right and its status in civil proceedings in the area. It notes that these suppositions have gone unchallenged due to the perception of the privilege to self-representation as a natural expression of the right of access to court.
