The importance of the rule of law for the functioning of a democratic state makes this research topic relevant. The study aims to examine the principle of impartiality as one of the key principles of legal procedures, define its place in the provisions of international treaties, international legal acts, and the legislation of Ukraine, and study its interpretation in practice of the European Court of Human Rights. The main research method we used in the article was the formal-legal method, which allowed us to ana-lyze the legal framework of international law, court practice, and the legislation of Ukraine. This, in turn, helped us to examine the level of legal regulation on the principle of impartiality and find out cer-tain gaps. The article explores the practice of the European Court of Human Rights and, on its basis, substantiates as the conclusion the importance of the principle of impartiality in judicial activity. More-over, having analyzed the legislation of Ukraine, we revealed the need to refine the consolidation of the principle of impartiality and its detailed interpretation in regulatory legal acts, in particular, the Law of Ukraine On the Judiciary and Status of Judges. The practical significance of the article is to prepare the basis for amendments to the legislation of Ukraine.

The importance of respect for human rights in a democratic society and, especially, by the state makes this research topic relevant. However, the current situation in Ukraine is evidence that such rights are often broken, and although law enforcement officials should protect these rights, they are those who break them.

The article studies the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. On its basis, it substantiates there are significant problems in the Ukrainian reality regarding the respect for human rights by law enforcement officials. Based on this, we have suggested effective meth-ods to eliminate these breaches, such as establishing additional control over the activities of law en-forcement officials and reforming their education system. As the changes and reforms should start with a terminological definition, we have emphasized the need to amend the current legislation of Ukraine that will eliminate contradictions and inaccuracies in the interpretation of the notion of law enforce-ment officials. The practical significance of the article is to prepare the basis for amendments to the leg-islation of Ukraine and the training system of law enforcement officials. In addition, the practical signif-icance of the work is to justify the need for an online platform for society to control the activities of law enforcement officials in terms of their respect for human rights and freedoms.
