In this article, I argue that apparently common values, such as ‘judicial independence’ have significantly different meanings in different judicial cultures. As an illustration, I take Sweden and Spain, countries with very different histories and institutional arrangements. It is my contention that basic values are understood and implemented in the light of historical and institutional settings. These have given rise to issues which a nation’s judiciary feel it has to address and set the context in which the contemporary judiciary has to operate. The purpose is to examine how far national histories and traditions colour the understanding of common values, such as judicial independence and democracy in the judicial process.

This article argues for the necessity of the reform of the judicial appointment qualification, and the judicial appointment powers in Egypt. The article presents judicial appointment process and requirement as the main case study. It illustrates the difference between de facto and de jure in the judicial appointment system in Egypt. These differences pave the road to a deeper understanding of legal and political aspects of discrimination against the poor, woman and political opposition within the appointment process. The article discusses the contemporary challenges in judicial appointment. The challenges can be summarized into: gender inequality, elimination of political minorities, and under-privileged citizens. Finally, the article proposes a solution for the problems identified in this article. These solutions are based on reforming the both the judicial appointment qualification, and the judicial appointment powers in Egypt.

Full textAbstract:
This article analyses the phenomenon of judicial activism in the American electoral process. It tries to estimate whether the political system of the United States of America has become hostage to the law-making role of the judiciary, which actively controls the compliance of election laws with the Constitution, thus drawing courts into purely political processes, or whether the nature of the disputes settled by judges rather makes it impossible for them to avoid being influenced by and influencing issues of a political nature. The article analyses various legal acts and court decisions, mostly concerning the current status of federal campaign finance in the United States, and demonstrates that more spheres traditionally reserved for other branches of government are being appropriated by the judicial branch.

Full textAbstract:
The article introduces a comprehensive analysis of professional judicial corporation in Russia in the XVIII–XXI centuries in its theoretical and historical aspects. The research objective was to clarify the concept and categories of judicial power, as well as to model the process of its development in Russia. The issue of professions and professional corporations as social phenomena is a matter of sociology. For lawyers, sociological studies are important in connection with the issue of judicial corporation development, i.e., its theoretical and historical development. The author relied on the structural and functional approach to the professionalization model developed by sociologist G. Vilensky, who interpreted the categories of judicial profession, judiciary, and judicial corporation. The authors revealed the directions in the development of the professional judicial corporation in Russia in the XVIII–XXI centuries and periodized this process. A separate and permanent judicial function determined the emergence of professional judiciary, organizationally represented by a professional judicial corporation. The profession of a judge is all these elements combined. The judicial corporation developed in Russia in three directions, i.e., normative, organizational, and symbolic, with a prominent regulatory influence of the state. The judicial profession and professional corporation started to develop in Russia during the judicial reforms in the XVIII century. This slow, nonlinear, and discrete process was completed as late as in the XXI century with all the necessary stages of professionalization: the professional corporation finally became the organization form of the Russian judiciary. The authors revealed five stages in the history of the professional judicial corporation in Russia: 1) XVIII century; 2) the first half of the XIX century; 3) 1864–1917; 4) 1917–1989; 5) 1989 – early XXI century.

Full textAbstract:
The rule of law is the cornerstone of democracy and the European Union accession process. Independent judiciary is an important facet of the rule of law, while judicial competence and judicial self-governance are among its elements. One of the dimensions of judicial self-governance is its educational function. By using dogmatic, exegetic and empirical legal methods, the paper examines the extent to which the demands formulated in interim benchmarks for Chapter 23 are aligned with the well-balanced approach to the principle of judicial self-governance and, further, the manner in which such self-governance is implemented in practice within the framework of the process for the adoption of the multiannual work program of the Serbian Judicial Academy. The authors conclude that the plan preparation process represents an adequate platform for duly observing the said concept, while the program itself can contribute to improving the competence of judges and, consequently, strengthening their independence.

Full textAbstract:
Every Indonesian citizen has the obligation to uphold the applicable law. Every implemented law has a demand for justice. Judicial power must exist in every democratic State of Law, tasked with upholding and overseeing the enactment of the applicable law and regulations (ius constitutum) in order to realize justice. Law without justice will be in vain, as a result, law will become invaluable before community. To answer the problems in this study, the researcher used a normative juridical approach, descriptive qualitative in nature. In this research, law enforcers, especially judges, must uphold the authority of the law and uphold the value of trust in society. The important prerequisites in upholding law and justice in the wolrd of justice is noble, clean, honest, professional, high integrity, high moral, and dignified judge. Supreme Court and Constitutional Court as judicial power holders, along with Judicial Commision in the scope of judiciary powers, not only have the authority to guide the judges but also have the authority to maintain the independency of judiciary powers from the influence of government and outside government parties by minimizing the subjectivity in recruitment process of prospective judges and supreme judges. The independency of judicial power is not enough, because law enforcers, especially “bad” judges can take refugee under the independency of judicial power. To build an “ideal” Judge or Supreme Judge who will fulfill the people needs of justice, the Judge or Supreme Judge recruitment process conducted by Judical Commission need to be strict while increasing the control over the implementation of power to minimize the arbitrary acts and abusive judge’s power. High commitment, consistency, adhering to the principles and code of ethics in carrying out their duties will lead to a clean, authoritative judiciary in the eyes of the society so that the hope of upholding independent judicial power will be realized while at the same time bring improvements to the Indonesian justice situation.

Full textAbstract:
In the article, the author examines the peculiarities of the normative consolidation of the principle of glasnost in the legal monuments of various historical stages of the formation of the Ukrainian state, attention is drawn to the approaches to society's perception of norms regarding certain elements of glasnost judicial proceedings in different periods in the history of the development of Ukrainian law. It was established that the reflection of the idea of the publicity as a value and need of society dates back to ancient times and through certain aspects can be traced in legal sources from Kyivan Rus. Attention is drawn to the fact that the legal sources that extended their influence to Ukrainian lands established the requirements of "publicity", "publicness", "openness", orality of judicial proceedings, the implementation of which influenced the formation and further development of society's ideas about the court and the judiciary, contributed to the strengthening of the request society for a fair trial, and therefore the development of the idea of transparency of the judicial process.
At the level of constitutional and legal regulation, the publicity of the judicial process for a long time did not find its full and comprehensive recognition, legal consolidation precisely as one of the main principles of the judiciary, because the principle of "openness" of the consideration of cases was consistently proclaimed in the studied constitutional acts, which cannot be considered a complete reflection of all aspects of the principle of judicial transparency. Instead, the category of "glasnost" of the judicial process is studied at the level of legal doctrine, mostly actively researched in scientific works devoted to issues of procedural law, the judicial system and the judiciary. Although the constitutional norms did not contain a reference to the concept of "openness", in many scientific works, researchers defined the openness of judicial proceedings as a fundamental constitutional principle, relying on the constitutional norms on the openness of court hearings.
With the adoption of the Constitution of Independent Ukraine, the publicity of the judicial process as a broader constitutional and legal requirement for the administration of justice was enshrined in the system of the basic principles of the judiciary.

Full textAbstract:
Should the process by which laws are enacted affect their legislative validity? This Article attempts to provide a justification for judicial review of the legislative process and suggests that the court should encourage legislative due process. Lawmaking means responsible lawmaking, and the court should thus be able to ensure a minimal due process of lawmaking by reviewing the legislative process. To date the Israeli Supreme Court has refrained from judicial review of Knesset legislation by virtue of flaws in the legislative process. Recently however, Supreme Court judgments seem to have endorsed a form of judicial review of the legislative process, at least de jure. This Article presents the theoretical and comparative frameworks for judicial review of the legislative process and scrutinizes the law in those countries that conduct judicial review of procedurally defective laws together with an examination of the particular features of the rules governing such review. In comparative law, the characteristics of judicial review of the legislative procedures are similar to those manifested in the question of judicial review of legislation, and based on the same premises. In Israel as well, judicial review of legislation is based on the existence of a supreme constitutional norm, of basic rights and fundamental principles. The Article concludes by proposing that the main characteristics of judicial review: constitutionality, proportionality, and restraint should dictate the relationship between the Supreme Court and the Parliament in all aspects of judicial review.

The article deals with the interpretation of the law by the judiciary. Normative legal acts in the process of their application can not always regulate social relations, resulting in the uncertainty of their application. Judicial interpretation of the law by the highest judicial authorities provides necessary assistance to the law enforcement authority having, which gives certainty and unity of their application to specific legal disputes. Judicial interpretation in the enforcement process remains valid at the present time that requires the theoretical and practical research. Theory of judicial interpretation of the law will tend to develop skills to understand the specifics of formation and application of acts of judicial interpretation.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article explores the conditions that allow judicial councils and impeachment juries to promote judicial autonomy. In theory, these bodies intervene in the appointment and removal of judges in order to reduce executive control over court composition, thereby promoting judicial independence. Using the case of Argentina at the federal and the subnational levels, this study demonstrates that competitive politics enhances the capacity of judicial councils and impeachment juries to bolster judicial autonomy. Interparty competition provides incentives for the executive to develop a meaningful system of checks and balances, which includes an independent judiciary that can check executive power. In contrast, monolithic party control—defined as a prolonged period of unified government under a highly disciplined party—permits the executive to maintain a monopoly on power and thereby control judicial appointments and removals.

Full textAbstract:
Theoretical and practical significance of the topic of judicial practice is predetermined by the increasing influence of its role in the development and improvement of national legislation. In the system of separation of powers, the judiciary traditionally refrains from creating new legal regulations, ensuring only the application of legal norms in the process of justice. At the same time, the system of separation of powers assumes not only mechanisms of checks and balances, but also methods of interaction of various branches of government. In the process of such work, it is possible and necessary for the judicial system to participate in the development and improvement of legislation. Specification and detailing of the norms of laws is carried out today in the process of adopting regulatory decisions of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Kazakhstan, established in the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan as a valid law. However, not only in the process of direct law-making it is possible for the judiciary to develop a system of norms of national law. Judicial practice as a plurality of judicial acts formed in the course of the activities of judicial bodies, their generalization by judicial collegiums of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Kazakhstan act as an auxiliary source of law, filling in gaps in the current legislation, offering recommendations for improving the mechanism of legal regulation and thereby ensuring its development and improvement. In this aspect, an important direction in the study of judicial practice today is the scientific understanding of the question of how far the limits of judicial law-making extend, what is its relationship with the interpretation of law, the judicial consciousness of the judge, the application of law and the law by analogy, what are the legal principles of judicial practice. The article examines these issues with the analysis of court decisions and their generalizations.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract South Africa is widely regarded as a model of a constitutional democracy on the African continent. This is partly because of the progressive Constitution adopted in 1996 and the fact that the country has consistently managed to conduct democratic, free and fair elections since the end of apartheid in the early 1990s. The sustainability of South Africa's constitutional democracy rests on the ability of the judiciary to ensure compliance with the constitution. The competence and credibility of the judiciary hinge on the appointment of judges who are able to reflect the diversity of the country, act without fear or favor, and develop a jurisprudence which creates and deepens constitutionalism. Judicial independence is a key component of the credibility of the judiciary. The inconsistent application of norms and standards when selecting and appointing judges tends to undermine the credibility of the appointments process. The process of judicial selection and appointment in South Africa begins with the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) advertising the existing judicial vacancies. After that, the JSC shortlists candidates who are then interviewed. Following these interviews, the JSC shortlists candidates for possible appointment by the President. A review of the transcripts of interviews conducted by the JSC from April 2014 to October 2019 shows patterns of discrepancies in the types of questions which candidates vying for the same judicial position are required to answer. This Article explains the process followed by the JSC, and then identifies and analyzes the discrepancies in the process employed by the JSC. The Article then demonstrates the negative impact which the discrepancies have had on both the quality of the judicial selection process and the quality of candidates shortlisted for appointment. Furthermore, this Article makes recommendations on how South Africa can draw from international norms and standards as well as good practices from comparative jurisdictions, to enhance consistency and fairness in its judicial selection and appointments processes.

Efforts to support the creation of an independent judiciary as a constitutional mandate in its development has held several changes to the Judicial Authority Law, the last change is the Act Nomber 48 of 2009 on Judicial Authority. But these changes, when studied in depth is still set aside some very fundamental issues. The first is related to the function of law enforcement in the context of the criminal justice system. This concept requires that the law enforcement process should be integrated into a system of justice, but in fact the process of criminal justice, police and prosecutors are in a different scope of judicial power, so that the position can thus be ensured in the intervention process should be independent of law enforcement and free from any influence. The second problem is, of externally monitoring the functioning of the judicial power, which formally made by the Judicial Commission and the desired control by Parliament (as in the draft of the Supreme Court). Supervision models run by Judicial Commission nor desired by the House very serious effect on the performance of the functions of the judicial authorities even add complexity implementation of judicial power function itself, so that the implementation of judicial power considered not able to guarantee legal certainty and justice for litigants. This paper is limited to the study of these two issues in order to reinforce our commitment to build a sound administration of justice and independent in order to provide access to justice for all people and a healthy justice will only be realized in a reciprocal relationship between the environment and the environmental justice community.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This paper proposes a synthesis that renders democratic principles compatible with the preservation of judicial control of constitutionality. This has been mediated by what I have called ‘weak procedural constitutionalism’, a methodology through which constitutional conflicts are debated in the legislature and among the citizenry as the real holders of the final say in society, with judicial activity focused on an intermediate say and the promotion of subsequent social deliberation. The judicial process thus becomes a public dialogical procedure susceptible to intervention by citizens and capable of generating public information processes facilitating accountability. The constant quest for instrumentalities that increase the democratic legitimacy of constitutional courts is an existential necessity. Only through real opportunities for dialogue and citizen participation in the decision-making process can judicial review be made democratically palatable. This requires that both judges and legislators play an intermediate rather than primary role, one in which democratically elected legislatures enjoy a high degree of legitimacy in adopting decisions, in juxtaposition with the derivative legitimacy appurtenant to constitutional courts. The premise for the exercise of what I denominate as weak constitutionality control, or the hypothesis for a weak procedural constitutionalism, is a possible synthesis of the tension between constitutionalism and democracy, with emphasis on the Colombian case.

Full textAbstract:
Judicial ethics are arguably one of the most important aspects of legal ethics Values of legal ethics such as decorum, dignity, courtesy, and rationality that were emphasized by the late but still foremost scholar of professional legal ethics, Deborah Rhode, readily apply to the judicial context.. Related to these values, judicial ethics ensures that three important attributes or three ‘Is’ characterise the judicial process and the conduct of judicial officers: independence, impartiality and integrity. Adherence to these three principles of judicial ethics is key in securing the administration of justice, professional discipline in the judiciary, and public confidence. This article therefore takes the view that the competence of judges not only includes their academic qualifications but their possession of qualities necessary to fulfil the three Is and other standards of ethical judicial conduct. Moving from this understanding, the article analyses how judicial ethics, as a derivation of legal ethics, shapes the role of judges and, further, how Kenya’s Judicial Service (Code of Conduct and Ethics) Regulations integrates established principles of judicial ethics. From this analysis, the author argues that judicial ethics are inseparable from judicial competence and that Kenya’s Judicial Service (Code of Conduct and Ethics) Regulations effectively reflect the necessary principles of judicial ethics. Thus, continued enforcement of the judicial Code of Conduct and Ethics is essential to safeguarding judicial ethics in the Kenyan judiciary.

British cases used to be widely relied upon to show that courts were entitled to hear criminal proceedings against defendants brought before them without having to enquire into the process by which custody over them had been obtained: and specifically, that there was no bar to proceeding where the allegation was made that custody had been obtained in breach of international law.1 The consistency of the doctrine was breached by Mackeson2 when the English court refused to hear the case against a defendant who, it accepted, had been brought to England by a collusive process between the English and Zimbabwean authorities, which arguably breached both national laws, even if it did not involve a breach of international law. While the previous orthodoxy soon reasserted itself in Driver,3 the edifice of authority was substantially undermined in Bennett4 when the House of Lords acceded to the claim of the applicant that proceedings against him would be an abuse of process, given the circumstances in which his presence in the United Kingdom had been achieved. Outside the United Kingdom, the practice in other States continued in different directions, sometimes confirming the old position of male captus, bene detentus,5 sometimes the reverse.6

Full textAbstract:
In the article, based on a systematic analysis of the current national legislation and the provisions of the European Court of Human Rights, judicial discretion in the administrative process is considered. The topicality of the topic is determined by the fact that the study of the nature of law enforcement will allow us to determine the role of discretion in legal activity, mark its place in the arsenal of legal regulation tools, and create conditions for increasing the social significance of law. The methodological basis is a collection of general scientific research methods, such as analysis and synthesis of the obtained results. Special and private scientific methods were also used: logical, systematic, comparative legal, functional, sociological, axiological. The subject is theoretical conceptual developments regarding judicial discretion and its limits. Judicial discretion in the Romano-Germanic legal family under the rule of the doctrine of legal positivism, which is complemented by the natural-law direction, in the operational aspect represents a choice made within the limits of the legal norm. It is noted that lawenforcement discretion is an activity of authorized legal subjects carried out taking into account and within the limits of the law, which provides for the possibility of choosing the optimal decision in a legal case. Limits of discretion are legal frameworks established by legal means that limit the scope of application of law. Based on the legal nature of lawenforcement relations, which have a dual structure, which includes the material-legal content and the procedural-procedural form of the exercise of the judicial discretion when considering a specific case, they are determined by material-legal means, which consist of: orders of the material norm of the law; circumstances of the case; provisions of court practice; principles of law. As for the procedural aspect, the limits of judicial discretion are defined by means of the powers of the court; the content of the demands; procedural terms; subject boundaries. Further research involves determining the impact of information technology on judicial discretion.

Only on the basis of the exact establishment of the factual circumstances of the case, the judicial team can resolve the respective case, applying the provisions contained in the law on liability for such a situation. The judicial team will pronounce, thus, a sound and legal decision, a convincing decision both for the parties in the process and for those outside, this is necessary to ensure the preservation of legality and by law.
The experts, as means of proof are used by the judicial bodies in those cases in the salt, to foresee some facts, to establish the southern connection between them, are necessary special knowledge in the field first, techniques or arts. It is not possible for the judicial team to be a specialised in all matters, and even a more complete general training could not (at this stage of development of science and technology) equally cover the the field, in all its aspects. To this it is necessary to add that in some situations a special effort is required, as a rule, it cannot be done outside the court or only with the help of some technical means. The necessity of using experts is so obvious, but it cannot be denied. More than that, it was argued that even in the case where the court would have a specialist, such a situation cannot eliminate the need to call in experts, even though the judge and the expert have the functions of the process other differences. On the other hand, the utility of using this means of evidence in the activity of the judicial team is reflected in laws and other such regulations, the legislator itself providing for the obligation to resort to expertise in certain situations. At the same time, the establishment of some state institutions intended for this purpose, the election of experts from among the specialists and the higher salification, clearly demonstrates the importance of the institution.
The emphasis made in the preceding lines regarding the importance of these means of evidence and scientific evidence, should be understood in the sense that the expert's opinion does not have absolute probative force, being subject to freedom of expression of the judicial body in the light of his legal conscience and according to his conviction. Although the expertise is not decisive in resolving a dispute, it does not oblige the judicial body to give a certain solution, and only gives it the possibility to form its own opinion. It is obvious, however, that given the basis of the scientific argument of the opinion expressed by the expert, the rejection of the expert's conclusions on the grounds that they would not be convincing or the maintenance of these conclusions, although to remove one or all parts of the process, it will have to be motivated and special care.

Full textAbstract:
Judicial Corruption is a disgrace to the world of justice and disaster for the justice seeker community. The judiciary is the third branch of state power after the executive and legislature. The judicial function is as a control and a counterweight to both branches of the power so as not to fall into arbitrary acts. In other words, the judiciary basically serves to implement the principle of checks and balances. However, if the justice functioning as a counterweight is actually involved in the vortex of judicial corruption that has plagued the judicial institutions, then what happens is the absence of justice because the judicial institution becomes unqualified and degrades its reputation in the public eye. This will lead to a vote of no confidence in the judiciary as a whole and the community has the potential to seek justice in other ways that may be done in illegal ways. Therefore, it is important to realize quality judiciary by organizing institutional aspects, the process of recruitment of constitutional justices, and producing decisions containing new legal breakthroughs, so that will be realized a qualified judicial institution.

This article discusses the relationship between political configuration and the characteristics of judicial power exercised by the Supreme Court and Constitutional Court in Indonesia. In writing this article, a normative approach is used in the form of legal history and comparative law. There is a very close relationship between political configuration and the characteristics of judicial power in Indonesia so that it can influence judicial power in Indonesia. The form of political configuration intervention in judicial power is not implementing the decisions of the judiciary and replacing judges in the Supreme Court and Constitutional Court in Indonesia. This causes the level of public (society) trust in judicial power and law in Indonesia to decline drastically and of course, cannot realize social justice in Indonesia.

Most of these decisions came after the Bill of Rights, enacted into the Constitution in 1984, became justiciable in 1989 and widened the scope of judicial control of executive powers.

Courts are very important because their pronouncements become part of the law in light of the provisions of section 3 of the Judicature Act, 1967. Therefore, the process of making judicial determinations on issues before courts must be treated with the necessary efficiency. Delivery of justice involves both judicial and administrative work. That is to say, for expediency in the administration of justice to be met, there is a need for other administrative functions which cannot be done by the judges. Therefore, the role of judicial staff in case management is critical in the functioning of the judiciary. Though the Judiciary has come up with different initiatives to build capacity for judicial staff, the initiatives including the approval of the Judiciary Human Resources Policies and Procedure Manual 2014, continue to exist amidst serious training and human practice challenges on motivation, security, and adequacy of facilities. This paper discusses the initiatives that the Judiciary has put in place to attract and maintain the best human resource capital. It proposes that strategic investment in information and communication technology will help overcome the challenges as the Judiciary moves towards its identified strategic direction of quality judicial service.

Full textAbstract:
The article highlights and criticizes two mutually exclusive approaches to understanding the administrative process that currently exist in Russia, which emasculate its complex content, predetermined by the Constitution of the Russian Federation. From the system analysis of art. 10, 18, 72, 118, 126, 132 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation the administrative procedure legislation of the Russian Federation is distinguished, which is considered as a single legal basis for the administrative proceedings carried out by the courts (including: the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, courts of general jurisdiction, arbitration courts), and the administrative process carried out by the public administration (including: federal executive authorities, executive authorities of the subjects of the Russian Federation and local self-government bodies performing administrative and public functions, as well as organizations, which, by virtue of federal law, have the status of a state or other body for the purpose of performing certain administrative and public functions). With this approach, two components are distinguished in the structure of the administrative procedural legislation of the Russian Federation: 1) administrative-procedural legislation that forms the legal basis of judicial administrative proceedings; 2) administrative-procedural legislation that forms the legal basis of executive (non-judicial) judicial administrative proceedings. Developing the information-psychological approach developed in the theory of law, in relation to the scientific knowledge of the administrative process, administrative-indicating legal norms are distinguished, the analysis of which allows us to reveal the content, form and structure of the judicial administrative process, as well as the executive (non-judicial) administrative process and to establish an integrative relationship between them. Using such a scientific technique, the following is distinguished: 1) a group of administrative-indexing norms that establish discretionary (descriptive) information about judicial administrative cases; 2) a group of administrative-indexing norms that establish discretionary (descriptive) information about non-judicial administrative cases. By means of a differentiated analysis of the selected legal norms, it is argued: judicial and extrajudicial administrative cases are separated, differentiated concepts of administrative proceedings and administrative proceedings are introduced, the structure of judicial and executive (extra-judicial) administrative proceedings is revealed. Based on the developed scientific positions, the key proposals for the systematization of the judicial administrative process and the executive (non-judicial) administrative process in Russia are put forward. Summarizing the above, it is concluded that the presented integrative approach to understanding the administrative process and the proposals put forward on its basis for differentiated systematization of judicial and executive (extrajudicial) administrative process are the only true way to develop the Russian model of administrative process.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the legal nature of the judicial compliance assessment, its correlation with the concepts of «judiciary»,«justice», «compliance assessment», «judicial control», «legal proceedings». In the legal literature the essence of this category is defined differently: it is considered as a function, objective, means, activities, process. Describing the concept of “function” as the main direction of the activity of different authorities, judicial compliance assessment is considered to be one of the functions (essential manifestations) of the judiciary. The leading role in the implementation of separation of powers and effective participation of courts in the system of checks and balances allows us to consider this institution as a function fulfilling the purpose of the judicial power. The judicial compliance assessment is a part of justice, which is the main function of the judiciary, and it’s implemented through constitutional, civil, arbitration, administrative and criminal proceedings. Thus, the legal proceedings are a form of realization of the compliance assessment functions of the judiciary. At the same time, the judicial compliance assessment is a kind of compliance assessment in general as the activity of the entire system of the competent authorities to assess regulations. Based on the results of the analysis of various positions of lawyers regarding the legal nature and content of judicial compliance assessment author offers his vision of the place of this institution in the system of functions of the judiciary and its main characteristics.

Full textAbstract:
The problems of judicial enforcement are considered in the article. It is emphasized that judicial enforcement is a legal form of state functions implementation. The need to study this legal category is emphasized. This need is related to the harmonization of legislation with international standards, judicial reform, and increased protection of human rights. Different points of view of legal scholars concerning judicial enforcement are investigated. It is concluded that the judicial application of the law is based on the rules of positive law. A judge may not refuse to hear a case due to gaps in the law. Judicial enforcement is associated not only with the application of the law, but also with their interpretation, and sometimes lawmaking. On the one hand, the judiciary is a manifestation of power, and on the other it is the most rational and effective form of control over the activities of state power. It is stated in the article that justice, as a court activity carried out in the form of civil, administrative, criminal, economic and constitutional proceedings, takes place in the procedural forms established by law. Law enforcement activity of the court is a long, complex and systematic process. It has a specific purpose, that is a clearly defined value, which includes recognition of a person, their life, health, honor and dignity, inviolability and security. It is stated that law enforcement cannot be carried out beyond the principles of law, as they go through all the rules of law and are the basis of the legal system. The components of the rule of law are recognized by the international community. In particular, they are: – the right to appeal against the actions of public authorities; – free assessment by the court of the circumstances of the case; – independence and impartiality of judges; – independent judicial procedure, which covers fairness, openness, reasonable time for consideration of the case, availability of legal aid; – binding nature of court decisions. In order to ensure the proper judicial system functioning, it is proposed to amend the current legislation in the process of judicial reform. The conclusions to the article stipulate that the court performs both law enforcement and law-making functions. The essence of the administration of justice and judicial activity is reduced to the application of law. In the process of administering justice, the judiciary acts in clearly defined procedural forms. Judicial power, as a subject of constitutional regulation, is exercised precisely in justice, and justice is administered and administered by the court through judicial enforcement. Key words: judicial enforcement, justice, judicial activity, judicial power, judicial proceedings, judicial lawmaking.

Full textAbstract:
The Serbian judiciary is inefficient, politically dependent, expensive, and placed in a perpetual reform cycle. This is why the reform of the Serbian judicial apparatus is set high on the European Accession negotiations agenda. Reasons for the underperformance of the judiciary are manifold, and, for the need of this study, I will try to associate them with two independent variables. The primary source of the crisis of the judiciary is reflected in the deficiencies of general legal education and expert training, as well as the outdated system of evaluation for prudence and skills of the holders of judicial functions. Secondary sources are derived from permanent endeavours of the executive powers, and other, more informal, sources of power that place the judiciary under their patronage. Precisely along these lines, are the European Commission’s demands that Serbia should establish a transparent and open method of entering into the judiciary through the process of selecting successful candidates. With this study, it is my goal to analyse the extent to which the newly established Serbian Judicial Academy is capable of remedying observable problems, and contributing to the establishment of a competent and efficient judicial apparatus. Normative and empirical scrutiny of the Judicial Academy is coupled by a set of practical recommendations aiming to further strengthen the position of this young institution, within the Serbian judicial system.

The central bodies in which the accumulated practical experience of judicial work is accumulated are the All-Russian Congress of Judges and the Council of Judges of the Russian Federation. The transformation of the mechanism of judicial power is carried out by the federal bodies of the judiciary through the implementation of rule-making competence, one of the manifestations of which is participation in the legislative process.

The relevance of the topic is determined by the needs of modern Kazakhstani society in an independent judiciary and highly professional judges, capable of being a genuine guarantor of human and citizen rights and freedoms. Based on the study of the OECD countries’ experience, it is argued that it is the judicial education that plays a key role in the formation of an independent, highly professional judiciary. The current state of judicial education in the Republic of Kazakhstan and its development issues are considered. Prospective directions of its development are justified based on the OECD countries’ experience. A number of measures for improving judicial education is argued to be undertaken: the need for compulsory special training of candidates for the position of a judge, the development of teaching staff through the involvement of the best sitting judges in the training process, and the need to remove judicial education from the executive authorities. The role of new technologies in the development of judicial education is particularly mentioned.

AbstractWe develop a model of “notice and comment” rulemaking, focussing on strategic issues facing agencies and interest groups in light of judicial review in this process. Specifically, we analyse the incentives for agencies and groups to produce and reveal information during rulemaking. We show that judicial review can produce informed policymaking, but that participatory rulemaking can bias agency policymaking in favour of groups with access to the rule-making process. In addition, the model allows an analysis of doctrines of judicial review of agency policymaking. The model reveals that “politicised” judicial review can be beneficial because of its effects on agency incentives for information acquisition in policymaking. Accordingly, socially optimal judicial review may be “legally irrational” and, contrary to standard doctrines of judicial review in the United States, judicial deference to rules with thin records can be optimal.

The research relevance is determined by the European integration and identification of gaps and shortcomings arising in the process of harmonisation of Ukrainian legislation with the legal standards of the European Union, providing improvement areas. The study aims to characterise the reform of Ukraineʼs judicial system in the context of European integration. The following research methods were used in the study: systemic and structural, comparative legal, formal legal, and systematisation methods, as well as methods of synthesis, analysis, and generalisation. The study established that the judicial reform launched in 2016 is linked to Ukraineʼs plans to become a full-fledged member State of the European Union. It is determined that under the legal regime of martial law, some processes of reforming the judicial system to the standards of the European community may be slowed down. It is noted that the Copenhagen criteria, especially chapters 23 and 24, are among the key definitions for the implementation of justice and the judiciary in a country which is a member of the European Union. The analysis added that to accelerate the European integration processes in Ukraine, composition renewal of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine should be undertaken. The need to establish transparent qualification requirements for judges and modernise the selection process for the judiciary was outlined. The study concludes that it is necessary to fully launch the High Qualification Commission of Judges of Ukraine, which is one of the key bodies of judicial self-government. The effective operation of this body is essential for maintaining the judiciary at a high professional level and ensuring compliance with the standards of justice. Furthermore, the study stressed the importance of continuing to effectively combat any manifestations of corruption in the activities of the judiciary and the judicial system as a whole. The study materials can be used to improve the functioning of the judicial system in Ukraine
