According to the law, an amendment has been made to the Enforcement and Bankruptcy Law, allowing an auction to be extended by three minutes if a new bid is placed within the last ten minutes of the auction. The financial limits of the Regional Administrative Courts are increased. The duties of judicial inspectors are defined. A woman can challenge paternity presumption by filing a case for the denial of parentage.
