Seizure of immovable property in the light of recent amendments to the civil procedure code

Abstract

The following paper include analysis of the impact of recent legislative changes, implementing next stages of informatization of civil proceedings, on the issue of seizure of immovable property. This analysis first includes the impact of the changes enforced under the Act of 10 July 2015 amending the Civil Code, the Code of Civil Procedure and some other legal acts on the court bailiff’s obligation to order the debtor to immediately pay the debt under the pain of description and value estimation of the property. This part focuses on the possibility of delivering the call for payment to the debtor via the ICT system. Another part of the analysis presents reflections on the change in the form of submissions for entry into a land and mortgage register. This change results from the Act of 15 January 2015 amending the Code of Civil Procedure and some other legal acts, which requires the court bailiff to lodge the submission with the use of the ICT system.
