Abstract
The fundamental importance of the category «legal institution» not only for legal science, but also for practice determines the relevance of conducting research aimed at systematizing and categorizing legal phenomena. In the field of civil procedural law, one of such phenomena is exemption from proof, the issue of independence of which has not been resolved in the procedural doctrine. In this regard, the author, based on general theoretical research, reveals the concept of a legal institution and explores the legal regulation of the grounds for exemption from evidence in civil proceedings, paying special attention to the relationship of the rules on exemption from duty of proof with other institutions and categories of civil proceedings.
Based on the results of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to identify a set of norms dedicated to exemption from evidence as an independent institution.
