The Author criticizes the provisions of the Law of Ukraine «On the Judiciary and the Status of Judges» that regulate the powers of the Supreme Court and formulates the proposals aiming at the renewal of the constitutional status of the Supreme Court as the highest judicial authority in the system of courts of general jurisdiction. Special attention is paid to the role of the Supreme Court of Ukraine in ensuring the uniformity of the judicial practice in the context of the requirements of the Rule of Law, strengthening the independent and fair justice. |
