The Postulate of Protecting the Interests of Minors in the Light of the Provisions on Adoption Cases

Abstract

The adoption procedure, the framework of which is determined by the provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure, is based on the principle of protecting the welfare of the minor. Almost every action required during this process requires securing his interest. The above is part of the scope of research covered by this article and boils down to the identification of challenges related to the implementation of the rights and obligations of participants in adoption proceedings in accordance with the protection of the minor’s interest. The presented research problem is important primarily because of the legal position of the adopted child. The purpose of the publication is to conduct a value judgment of ways and forms of protection of the interests of minors analysed based on the provisions on civil procedure. The research methodology used in the article is largely based on the dogmatic and legal method consisting in the linguistic and logical analysis of legal texts. The result of its implementation is obtaining the proper meaning of the interpreted legal text in terms of the language in which the text is formulated. The use of this method is the basis for the conducted research, based on which objectively accepted conclusions will be drawn. Assuming the above assumptions of the research problem and the research methods used, the thesis was adopted for the purposes of this article that the legislator protects the interests of minors in the adoption procedure based on the regulations of the Code of Civil Procedure.
