Using a documentary methodology close to the dialectical method, the objective of the article is to analyze the judicial reforms in Ukraine. Citizen belief in peace, justice and strong institutions is a challenge not only for Eastern Europe, where trust in state bodies has always been low. Meanwhile, the ongoing reforms of the judiciary aim to achieve a significant result using specific methods such as: the purging of judges. After the so-called “revolution of dignity” forceful discussions began on the purification process in Ukraine. For the first time, this question was raised in the early 90s of the last century. Unfortunately, the relevant legislative projects did not even reach the congress of Ukraine. It is concluded that Ukraine is currently experiencing its third attempt to initiate a judicial purge process. Unlike the first two, the third is apparently more productive. This is since a special law was passed, and the "government purification" procedure was started. finally, questions such as what is lustration and in what types does it manifest itself are discussed? How is this phenomenon related to the processes of systemic transformation?
