The Supreme Court of Ukraine (Ukrainian: Верховний Суд України, romanizedVerkhovnyi Sud Ukrainy) is the highest judicial body in the system of courts of general jurisdiction in Ukraine.[2]

The Court derives its authority from the Constitution of Ukraine, but much of its structure is outlined in legislation. A more detailed description of the Court's functions and authority may be found in the Law of Ukraine "On the Judiciary and the Status of Judges".
