Description
Summary:The article is dedicated to issues of the genesis and continuity of judicial power in the Republic of Latvia. On 18 November 1918, the State of Latvia was proclaimed as a democratic republic. Pursuant to the theory of separation of state power, the judicial power became one of the powers of the independent Latvian State. The author of this publication proposes the thesis that in examining the problems of the continuity of a democratic and judicial state the aspect of the continuity of the judicial power should not be ignored. Without analysing the aspect of the continuity of the judicial power, the assessment of the implementation of the state continuity would be incomplete.
