The paper is devoted to the struggle for the judicial reform of 1864. The authors focus on the
personality of the Minister of Justice V.N. Panin, who actively opposed the new Legal Stat-
utes. He was an influential statesman enjoying the confidence of Emperor Alexander II.
V.N. Panin was defeated in his fight against the judicial reform, but his
concern about the
unpreparedness of Russia to the radical transformations, has proved partly justified.
Keywords:
new legal statutes, the independence of the court, Minister of Justice,
an op-
ponent of judicial reform.
