Commenting on the possible reduction in the size of the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court, which, according to sources, is being considered by the relevant committee of the Verkhovna Rada, Chairman of the VRP Grigory Usik emphasized that the Grand Chamber of the Supreme Court in such a quantitative composition really inefficiently fulfills the duties assigned to it, including the observance of the constancy of the judiciary.. practices.

Previously, judicial practice was formed at the plenums of the Supreme Court by the entire composition of the Supreme Court. Proposals were sent in advance to judges and courts, they were discussed, and then individual or consolidated proposals were made. The final decision was made by the plenum. Supreme Court - administrative, civil, criminal and economic. And when resolving issues of one jurisdiction, others have nothing to do with this at all.. Because they have a different specialization,"

According to the chairman of the VRP, it turns out that these five people - with the help of those members of the OP, whom they will win over to their side - determine the legal position for judges of the entire judicial system.

\? It must be admitted that this part of the reform failed,” the head of the VRP asks..

When asked about his own proposals for changes, Usyk stressed that the authority to determine the permanence of judicial practice should be returned to the plenums of the Supreme Court.. And in the Grand Chamber to leave the issue of appealing electoral decisions.

" And also - the definition of jurisdiction, where to consider this or that category of cases, because this is the fastest way, and it does not affect the permanence. All. this is enough, taking into account the position of the head of the Supreme Court of 13 members of the PC, three from each cassation,"

Usyk also noted that this is his personal opinion, answering the question whether he discussed these proposals with whom..

“Perhaps it’s not entirely moral for me to talk about reforming the Supreme Court, because I myself am a judge of the Supreme Court. But not only the public complains about the activities of the Grand Chamber of the Armed Forces, but also judges, lawyers. Judges cannot clearly define the legal position. Today one alone. legal position, and after half a year or a year - another. What does it entail? ”, he added.

Regarding the consideration of appeals on disputes over decisions regarding the president, parliament, the judge agreed that the role of the appellate instance in these cases should be played by the Grand Chamber.

" All decisions of the OP are public.

And we no longer have the level of development of civil society when the court can openly play along with the authorities. Even through the instinct of self-preservation,"
