The current law “On the Judiciary and the Status of Judges” contains provisions on the possibility of prosecuting judges for corruption offenses and for violations of procedural law. The following conclusions and suggestions were made: The President of Ukraine and other branches of government must be completely removed from the formation of the judiciary. Judges should be responsible not only for crimes, but also for disciplinary action for unjust decisions, including those ones that do not comply with or contradict substantive law. For the Prosecutor’s Office to be impartial, it must be independent from the President and other authorities and formed on a competitive basis. The Attorney General in our legal system should be appointed by the parliamentary opposition, which will create a balance of interests in this area. The system of execution of court decisions in Ukraine is characterized by its inaction and insolvency. Creating an effective executive service is an important task of the state. Stimulation of efficiency of activity of state executors can be carried out by material stimulation, granting of certain essential bonuses depending on coefficient of efficiency of the executed court decisions. Key words. judicial system of Ukraine, judicial branch of government, judicial reform, courts, judges, court decisions
