“There is no juridical act or appeals protest today, where no reference is done to this or that precedential decisions of the Court of Appeals. These decisions give opportunity to correct urgently the gaps and opponent comments in the law. They provide predictable justice for all the members of the trial, as a result of which cases of corruption will reduce and the activity of different types of swindlers upon juridical system will be put an end”- said the head of the Court of Appeals Arman Mkrtumyan at the presentation of the 6th volume of the collection of the decisions of RA Court of Appeals’ criminal cases.

In his opinion the decisions of the courts are precedential also for they are understandable, logical, are not capable to protest and the most important they are convincing.

The head of the OSCE office in Yerevan Andrey Sorokin emphasized in his speech that the juridical-legal system with good and fluent cases is important for establishing justice in the country. “The supremacy of the law cannot be guaranteed without the independence and candor of the juridical system. The judges are limited in the circles of the law and are responsible to apply the law with the facts being confirmed in front of them, which have evidential value”- emphasized the Ambassador.

Vardan Avetisyan, the president of the criminal chamber of the Court of Appeals, stated that the Court of Appeals forms a united practice as a result of which the opportunity of being guided by two standards of legal bodies is essentially limited.

Mr. Avetisyan stated that during the past 7-8 years RA Court of Appeals made a great work for the protection of fundamental human rights and freedom.
