Abstract

The experience of the organization and functioning of judicial systems of foreign countries is considered on the example of the system of general jurisdiction courts in Germany. The subject of the analysis is both the institutional characteristics of the system of German general jurisdiction courts, and the features of the conceptual content of the system as a whole and its individual links. Significant importance is attached to the real indicators of the functioning of the German judicial system, which have been critically evaluated both from the point of view of specific regulatory features and the general state of the practice of the administration of justice in terms of ensuring its proper implementation within the framework of the judicial system under study.

The purpose of the study is to summarize the results of existing studies of the effectiveness of the system of general jurisdiction courts in Germany, as well as to identify new aspects of this problem in scientific, cognitive and socio-practical terms. The absence of previous studies of the German judicial system, which has great potential for applying the comparative method and obtaining constructive conclusions from the point of view of the possibility of ensuring the assessment and improvement of the domestic judicial system, determines the relevance and relevance of the analytical study of the German experience of the judicial system and its effectiveness.

The research is based on the methods of comparative jurisprudence, dogmatic and linguistic-textual analysis of foreign legal texts, methods of systematic study of foreign legislation.

The results of the study are the following conclusions: the uniqueness of the German model of the system of general jurisdiction courts and the extensive specialization of jurisdictions in general; various specific legal structures and mechanisms that characterize this model; a number of significant changes and conditions recorded in the development of the judicial system in Germany (the abolition of jury trials, the specifics of district courts, the importance of the role of public assessors, the status of prosecutor’s offices, etc. ).
