Abstract

The constitution and laws give the individual many rights, including the right to litigate before the courts, whether civil courts or criminal courts. In the event of a violation of a person’s right, he can resort to the courts to protect this right by filing a civil lawsuit or a personal right lawsuit, which is the lawsuit filed by a person who has suffered damage from a specific act, seeking compensation for this damage. As for the criminal case, it is the claim of the right by the Public Prosecution to the judiciary in the name of the society to impose the penalty on the accused who committed the crime. The right to litigation is protected by law, therefore, it is not possible to deprive anyone of this right. Without enabling individuals to resort to the judiciary, all rights lose their value and remain just a decision that has no embodiment on the ground and has no legal value. There are no rights in the absence of judicial protection for them, thus restoring the balance between the opposing parties and the stability of transactions and instilling satisfaction and belief concerning justice in the hearts of individuals.
