Based on this research the following conclusions were made:: firstly, the main aim of simplifying the proceedings is to facilitate the work of the court as much as possible, preserving the quality of justice and minimizing the judicial and time costs of the persons participating in the case. Nowadays, the civil procedure legislation in terms of simplified procedures, has become more perfect than previously. However, the existing simplified procedures have a number of significant drawbacks. One of the main shortcomings is the failure to observe legal guarantees and the incomplete protection of the rights of participants in cases under simplified procedures. In this regard, there is an urgent need to refine and improve the institutions of simplified production. Secondly, a comparative legal analysis of simplified procedures in Russia and England showed that, despite the use of short stories of foreign experience, in particular, borrowing and introducing norms for the optimization of civil proceedings in Russian legislation, the simplified procedures of both countries have significant differences. Nevertheless, the judicial reform of England, and of Europe as a whole, can affect the development of procedural legislation of both Russia and many foreign countries in the future.
