The article deals with the legislative realities of the current legal regulation of the issue of appeals against court rulings in criminal proceedings in Part 2 of Art. 392 Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which clearly do not correspond to the content of the constitutional norm in Point 8 of Art. 129, that is, there is an apparent discrepancy with constitutional guarantees regarding the right to appeal the case, in particular, any court decision on any question. Analysis of the content of Art. 392 CPC of Ukraine leads to the conclusion that judgments can be appealed in an appeal only in cases provided for by the CPC of Ukraine. However, it should be noted that the content of the provisions of Part 2 of Art. 382 CPC of Ukraine fully corresponded to the previous wording of Article 129 of the Constitution of Ukraine, which has expired. Contents of Part 2 of Art. 392 CPC of Ukraine is not brought by the legislator in accordance with the requirements of the constitutional guarantees of the appeal review of the case concerning court decisions without any restrictions (Point 8 of Part 1 of Art. 129 of the Constitution of Ukraine, after the introduction of amendments by the Law No. 1401-VIII of 02.06.2016), which, in accordance with the case law, leads to a violation of the constitutional guarantees of the implementation of the basic principles of legal proceedings and, accordingly, the rights of individuals to freedom and personal integrity. Application by courts of Part 2 of Art. 392 of the CPC of Ukraine, effectively deprives the accused of the right to appeal and appeal cassation of a court of first instance decision regarding the election of a preventive measure against them.

Thus, the limitation of the right to appeal the decision to extend the preventive measure during the trial, along with the legal uncertainty of the legal norm itself provided for in Part 2 of Art. 392 CPC of Ukraine, and its arbitrary interpretation by judges, leads to: violation of the rule of law principle stipulated in Art. 8 of the Constitution of Ukraine; violation of the constitutional right to freedom and personal integrity provided for in Art. 29 of the Constitution of Ukraine; the rights to defense in court of their violated rights, stipulated by Art. 55 of the Constitution of Ukraine and the right to appeal the case regarding the measure of preventive measures provided for in Point 8 of Art. 129 of the Constitution of Ukraine.
