Objective: to improve the legal regulation of punishment in the form of deprivation of departmental awards of the judicial system of the Russian Federation for corruptive deeds committed by the awarded persons.Methods: the methodological basis of the study is the dialectical method of cognition and the general scientific (historical, logical, systemic) and specific scientific methods (grouping, analysis, synthesis, comparison, interpretation, etc.) based on it. Results: based on the comparative-legal research of departmental normative legal acts regulating the awarding with official awards of the judicial system of the Russian Federation, the author describes the awarding policy of the judicial system: the grounds and specifics of awarding with departmental and other official awards; the subjects and objects of award relations; the social consequences of awarding; the features of deprivation of departmental awards, including for corruptive deeds. Based on the study, it can be ascertained that the legal regulation of deprivation of departmental awards of the judicial system of the Russian Federation has a number of significant contradictions that should be eliminated. It is necessary to systematize the law on awarding of the judicial system of the Russian Federation, as a result of which there would be established uniform requirements for awarding individuals and legal entities with departmental awards, as well as depriving them of the awards for corruption and other deeds.Scientific novelty: for the first time in the Russian legal science, anti-corruption measures are proposed using the norms of the award law of the judicial system of the Russian Federation, namely, punishment in the form of deprivation of departmental awards of persons guilty of corruption. Practical significance: it is proposed to improve the norms of the award law of the judicial system of the Russian Federation for more effective corruption counteraction by using punishment in the form of deprivation of departmental awards of persons who committed corruptive deeds.
