Article 2662. Termination of Proceedings on a Supervisory Complaint (Protest)

The court examining the case under the supervisory procedure shall terminate proceedings in the following cases:

1) the complaint (protest) is filed by a person not entitled to appeal the court act (to lodge a protest);

2) the complaint (protest) is filed against a court act not reviewed in the appeal or cassation procedure by the relevant administrative courts or military court, or filed mistakenly to the Supreme Court when it was not reviewed in supervisory procedure by lower courts or not subject to such review under this Code;

3) the complaint (protest) is filed against a court act that has already been reviewed under supervisory procedure by the same court, and was mistakenly accepted;

4) a request for withdrawal of the complaint is submitted after acceptance, and the withdrawal is accepted by the supervisory court;

5) a request for withdrawal of the protest is submitted by the prosecutor or a higher prosecutor after the protest is accepted;

6) the legal entity that is a party to the case is dissolved before the court decision is made on the complaint (protest);

7) the individual party to the case dies before the decision on the complaint (protest), and the disputed legal relationship does not allow legal succession.

A ruling shall be issued to terminate the supervisory proceedings, and its copy shall be sent to persons participating in the case as prescribed by Article 171 of this Code.

If proceedings are terminated, the same person may not refile a supervisory complaint (protest) on the same grounds.
