Thus, the right to the court consists of a few inseparable elements: 1) the right to access the court, that is the right to initiate court proceedings in the case of infringing the protected rights of an individual; the access has to be genuine due to, among others, the right territorial organization of courts and reasonable fees, 2) the right to fair proceedings, that is the proper shaping of the court proceedings (based on the proper procedure, honest and public trial, participation of the suing individual in the proceedings which guarantee their rights), 3) the right to court judgement (receiving a court decision solving the issue within reasonable time), 4) the right to defence, 5) the right to be heard (the right to information, taking positions, considering actual statements and legal demands).
