ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ЗДІЙСНЕННЯ СУДОЧИНСТВА В УМОВАХ ВОЄННОГО СТАНУ

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the current procedural legislation on the work of courts and judges under martial law. The issue of taking urgent measures to ensure the stable functioning of the judiciary in Ukraine during the war was considered. It was found that the right to judicial protection, which is guaranteed by the Constitution of Ukraine, is not terminated or limited in the conditions of martial law, but can be exercised with certain features. That is, reduction or acceleration of any forms of judicial proceedings in the state is prohibited. But, at the same time, in practice, it is extremely difficult to ensure uninterrupted operation of the courts during the war. The continuation of the martial law in the country led to the adoption of a number of laws in the field of justice, which are either "supplementary" or "corrective" in nature. The norms of these laws are aimed at changing or adjusting the current legislation of our country. The article also states that the legal fact of imposing martial law on the entire territory of Ukraine does not affect the course of procedural terms in court cases. At the same time, it was established that the introduction of martial law on the territory of Ukraine is a valid reason for renewing the procedural terms.
