The article analyzes the possibilities of interpreting the professional activity of judges as a kind of public service in public administration practice in Ukraine.
Approaches to the interpretation of the public service and its types are analyzed. Arguments about the peculiarities of official relations in the judiciary are presented. The author substantiates the position that the judicial service is not sufficiently institutionalized. Obviously, there is a mix of different shades of service, there is a combination of official and state relations. It is emphasized that the professional activity of judges is carried out in the authorities, is paid at the expense of public funds, the content of the activity consists of the performance of tasks and functions of the state. This category of persons requires a basic law on public service in Ukraine. According to the author, the service in the judicial authorities (in this case we are talking about judges), which has its specific goals, tasks, functions, is of a public nature, should have its legal basis and be called a service in a public judicial position.
