Annotation | In recent years, scientific community of procedural scholars of Ukraine has a lively scientific discussion in the on the question: is judicial practice in general and the opinions of the Supreme Court in particular a source of law? If such practice and opinions of the Supreme Court as a result of judicial law-making are not a source of law, then what is their essence from a legal point of view? On January 15, 2020, the legislator amended the Civil Procedure Code of Ukraine (hereinafter – the CPC of Ukraine), in which the issue of judicial practice against a background of binding opinions of the Supreme Court becomes critical, because now we need to clarify whether we remain in the realm of continental law, where law enforcement is carried out in accordance with the content of law, or yet justice in our country goes to the realm of common law, where only the Supreme Court has the ability to go beyond the direct content of law and its opinions (legal opinions) are essentially binding on lower courts As the judicial practice and opinions (legal opinions) of the Supreme Court today have significantly increased their influence on trial of evidence as a component of justice, there is a need for a deeper scientific study of these conceptual ideas from both doctrinal and procedural points of view, in order to further develop civil procedural law of our state. The aim of this article is to study the theoretical and applied aspects of judicial practice and opinions of the Supreme Court in terms of their possibility to be recognized as sources of law and to become a basis for establishing of case law in Ukraine. First of all, we must say that the concept of “judicial practice” is a general concept, and therefore multidisciplinary, which led to the use of methods of systems analysis and a systematic approach to its study in the historical past and present. The concept of “judicial law-making” is a complex concept from the point of view of our study, as it is both a judicial practice and an individualized opinion of the Supreme Court, which the legislator has made binding. So, we have both general and specific insight and understanding of current trends in the development of civil procedural law.
