Judicial Power in its Resource Dimension: The Judicial Department is Twenty-Five Years Old

Abstract

The object of the study is the system of resource provision of the judiciary in the dynamics of its historical development. The authors analyze the formation and development of the regulatory framework for the functioning of the Judicial Department under the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation as a federal state body that provides organizational support for the activities of the supreme courts of the republics, regional and regional courts, courts of federal cities, courts of the autonomous region and autonomous districts, district courts, military courts for the administration of justice, as well as judicial bodies. communities and financing of magistrates. A comparative legal analysis of the powers of the relevant structure in the UK government system, which is responsible for “ensuring proper conditions for the functioning of the judicial system, its financing and real estate management” – Her Majesty’s Courts and Tribunals Service (HMCTS), has been carried out. As a result, the authors conclude that Russia of the future confidently wins the competition of judicial systems in the international arena largely due to the implementation of state policy in the field of justice through the Judicial Department, which is an important and really functioning institutional mechanism in the constitutional system of protection of human and civil rights and freedoms in the Russian Federation. The scientific novelty of the article is due to the combination of a comparative method with a dialectical approach when comparing the legal statuses of the Judicial Department with the analogue of this body in the judicial system of Great Britain. The combined method of research made it possible to identify the archaic essential parameters of the judicial power of the United Kingdom and to prove that the approaches to the legal construction of the Judicial Department have largely turned out to be more progressive than the principles of the construction of the judicial systems of some foreign countries.
