ABSTRACT. An analysis of the norms of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine «On the Supreme Council of Justice» and some other normative legal acts regulating the order (procedure) of temporary suspension of a judge from the administration of justice in connection with bringing him to criminal liability was carried out. On the basis of such an analysis, it is stated that the purpose, grounds, subjects and procedure for making a decision on the temporary suspension of a judge from the administration of justice are not laid down in the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, but in the Law of Ukraine «On the Supreme Council of Justice» on the basis of which, the author came to the conclusion , what:

1) the temporary removal of a judge from the administration of justice in connection with bringing him to criminal liability is not a measure to ensure criminal proceedings and does not relate to the criminal procedural procedure in general, but can be considered only as an obligation of the prosecutor within the framework of criminal proceedings to initiate before the Supreme Court by the Council of Justice on the issue of temporary suspension of a judge from his administration of justice;

2) the norms of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which regulate the procedure for the temporary removal of a judge from the administration of justice in connection with bringing him to
criminal responsibility, cannot be placed among the norms of the institution of measures to ensure criminal proceedings, but belong to Chapter 37 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine «Criminal Proceedings in a separate category of persons»;

3) the duty of the relevant prosecutor, after notifying a judge of suspicion of a crime, to initiate before the High Council of Justice the issue of temporary suspension of such a judge from the administration of justice should be enshrined in Clause 3 and Clause 3-1 of Part 1 of Article 481 of the Criminal Procedure Code «Notification of Suspicion».

Keywords: measures to ensure criminal proceedings; grounds; temporary suspension of a judge from administering justice; duties of the prosecutor, the High Council of Justice.
