Article 68. Duty of proving

Each person participating in the case must prove those circumstances to which he refers as to justification of his demands and objections.

At consideration of a case on application of measures of legal enforcement action against legal persons and citizens (hereinafter — enforcement action), the duty of proving the circumstances that are the basis for the application of enforcement action shall be imposed on the control authority.

Each person participating in the case must disclose evidence on which he refers as a ground for his demands and objections before other persons participating in the case prior to the beginning of court proceeding or within the time limit established by the court, unless otherwise established by this Code.

The persons participating in the case shall be entitled to rely only on the evidence with which other persons participating in the case were familiarized in advance.

If a party withholds the evidence requested by the court and does not submit it at the request of the court within the time period established by the court, it shall be assumed that the information contained in it is directed against the interests of this party and recognized by it as such.
