FEATURES OF THE EXECUTION OF DECISIONS OF THE RUSSIAN CONSTITUTIONAL COURT IN CASES RELATED TO LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT

Abstract

Using the example of individual decisions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the peculiarities of the execution of Court decisions in the eld of local self-government are shown. Special attention is paid to those who monitor law enforcement practices and supervise the implementation of decisions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, examples are given that information on the execution of individual decisions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation appears in the annual Reports on the state of local self-government prepared by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation. Despite the fact that cases related to local self-government are not in the priority of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, it is during the consideration of this category of cases and the subsequent execution of decisions that new legal structures are formed, which have received some coverage in this article. Thus, Resolution No. 30-P of December 1, 2015, issued on the basis of an analysis of the legislation of a particular subject of the Russian Federation, was extrapolated to all subjects of the Russian Federation; a different arsenal of means was used to bring the legislation of the subjects of the Russian Federation in line with the positions formulated by the Court; the results of monitoring the execution of the Court decision were public. The operative part of the Court’s decisions began to formulate obligations addressed not only to the legislator, but also to local governments (to regulate relevant public relations), as well as to courts and supervisory authorities, what to pay attention to when considering a speci c category of cases (Resolution No. 27-P of May 30, 2023). The Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation began to independently adjust the mechanism of execution of its own decisions.
