суд

Суд (sud) in Ukrainian translates to “court” in English. It refers to a legal institution where judicial proceedings take place. Courts are responsible for administering justice, adjudicating disputes, interpreting laws, and resolving criminal and civil cases. They operate based on established legal procedures and are an essential component of the judiciary in a legal system. In a court, judges or magistrates preside over cases, and the decisions made can have significant implications for the individuals involved, including rulings on guilt or innocence, as well as civil rights and liabilities. Courts can vary in hierarchy from lower courts to higher appellate courts, including supreme courts that handle the most significant legal issues within a jurisdiction.
