korvikkeeseen

Korvikkeeseen refers to a legal concept in Finnish law that allows for the substitution of one person for another in legal proceedings. This substitution can occur in various contexts, such as when a person is unable to appear in court due to illness, travel, or other reasons. The substituted person is known as a "korvikkeeseen" or "substitute."

The korvikkeeseen system is governed by specific legal provisions outlined in the Finnish Code of Civil Procedure and the Finnish Code of Criminal Procedure. These codes provide the conditions under which a person can be substituted and the procedures that must be followed to ensure the validity of the substitution.

The primary purpose of the korvikkeeseen system is to ensure that justice is served without unnecessary delays or inconveniences. It allows for the continuation of legal proceedings even when the original party is unable to participate. However, the substitution must be done in a manner that preserves the rights and interests of all parties involved.

In practice, the korvikkeeseen system is commonly used in both civil and criminal cases. For example, in a civil case, a party may appoint a lawyer or another individual to act on their behalf if they are unable to attend court. In a criminal case, a defendant may appoint a legal representative to defend them if they are unable to appear in court.

The korvikkeeseen system is an essential aspect of the Finnish legal framework, ensuring that justice is accessible and fair to all individuals, regardless of their ability to participate in legal proceedings.
