The article is devoted to the special role of courts of general jurisdiction in the mechanism of state intervention in local self-government. This "interference" in the activities of local governments is carried out mainly by courts of general jurisdiction, especially if they examine cases arising from administrative legal relations. Prior to the adoption of the Code of Administrative Procedure of the Russian Federation, these public relations were regulated by civil procedure law. The author offers his own version of the systematization and classification of forms of judicial control over the activities of municipalities.
