The article is devoted to the study of a new form of participation of citizens in court sessions in civil cases — by holding online sessions (using a web conference). According to the author, the legal presumptions applied when a participant does not appear at a court session held in person are not suitable for determining the procedural consequences of a person’s non-participation in an online session. The author concludes that consideration of the case in the absence of a person whose request to consider the case by organizing a web conference was granted by the court is permissible only when it is established that such person’s actions are not in good faith or clearly unreasonable.
