In regard to civil proceedings, this means that these loss of life and property will keep the judicial organs occupied in the foreseeable future in form of many disputes. In addition to this, in the event of such a disaster, the judicial organs are faced with many obstacles, both legally and de facto, and they may even become incapacitated. If a conscious, accurate and speedy judicial practice can be developed in accordance with the Turkish Code of Civil Procedure, the judiciary can come out of this earthquake without being left in the rubble. In this context, considering that the civil procedure law also aims to provide social justice, the provisions of the civil procedure law should be interpreted and applied in the light of the social state principle. In order to ensure the continuity of the justice service, the Council of Judges and Prosecutors should transfer proceedings in the courts that have become ineffective due to the disaster to other courts. In order to prevent the problem of collecting and storing evidence in disputes that may arise, the power of attorneys to collect evidence should be interpreted broadly and the expert opinion institution should be utilized as a quick and practical method of evidence collection as foreseen in Article 293 of the Code of Civil Procedure. By making a correct distinction between the burden of proof and the burden of substituting evidence, it should be considered that the information and documents that need to be revealed in terms of proof of facts are available to the defendant, as in the concrete earthquake example, and it should not be forgotten that a decision should be made against the defendant in case these cannot be presented. In the proof of the facts, it is obligatory to benefit from presumption of fact, circumstantial evidence and prima facie evidence, which arise in disaster situations in terms of the extent of proof.

Bu tür felâketlerin başta insanî, sosyal, ekonomik, kültürel ve diğer yönleri yanında, önemli ölçüde hukukî yönü de bulunmaktadır. Birçok konuda olduğu gibi maalesef bu konuda da hukukî alt yapı bakımın-
