Yakovlev Veniamin Fedorovich

Advisor to the President of the Russian Federation

Statesman

Honored Lawyer of Russia

Born on February 12, 1932 in Pretukhovo Kurgan region. Father - Yakovlev Fedor Kuzmich (1901-1942). Mother - Yakovleva Domna Pavlovna (1905-1997). Spouse - Yakovleva Galina Ivanovna (Rail.09.11.1930). Children: Smirnova Natalya Veniaminovna (Ry.14.10.1956), Minina Vera Veniaminovna (genus 24.04.1960).

The genus Yakovlev was donkey in the Kurgan region at the beginning of the XIX century at that time when the mass outcome of the peasants from the central regions on the outskirts of Russia took place. As a result, the former smoking became residents of Siberia, and Veniamin Fedorovich, with a full basis and pride, considers himself a Siberian - by birth and a warehouse of character.

The most vivid impression of childhood in Veniamine, the only son in the family, remained from joint travel with the Father on the nearby areas where the father was often commanded in connection with the operation of the mechanic on electric motors, especially since during the years of intensive electrification, such a specialty assumed material independence and high authority .

The line between childhood and adult human life is to be held, usually quite difficult. The exceptions are the fate of people whose share during this period any extreme events fall out. In the life of Veniamine Fedorovich, as well as in the life of all his generation, this event was the Great Patriotic War. At nineteenth age, he lost his father who died in the Smolensk region, and remained with his mother and two sisters the only man in the family. The funeral has become a shock for them. The boy was very hard of experienced, feeling the loss of his beloved father, like the highest tragedy. In the soul of the teenager settled the dream of the work in the world of justice. Over the years she got deeper.

The school of Veniamin ended in the city of Ishim Tyumen region, in which in those years there was a lot of intelligentsia, immigrants from families of exile political prisoners. In the house of the childhood of the childhood of Lomen Ognev, later - an outstanding scientist physicist-nuclear doctor, doctor of science, professor, Laureate of Lenin and other high premiums, the guys found an old chest stuck in Niva magazines with applications fiction For many years - the inheritance from the previously convicted woman. Friends read this find from the crust to crust. Young people captured the spirit from the admission to the values \u200b\u200bto which they touched, from the depths of the human intelligence they felt.

When it was time to choose a profession, Veniamine had no doubt, - jurisprudence, right. A special attractiveness for applicants of those years had the Sverdlovsk Law Institute, which was not very easy to enter. The institute worked a lot of high-class legal scientists escaped in these edges during the war years. One of the most authoritative figures of the professorical and teaching staff was Boris Borisovich Cherepakhin, a specialist of Roman and civil law, whose lectures were later than a great school for Veniamine and his students-students.

The entrance exams were successful, and the first dream of V.Yakovleva becomes Jaw, he is a student of the Sverdlovsk Law Institute. Study went interesting and easy. The situation in the student medium was creative, scientific circles were organized everywhere. Students of all levels have experienced genuine interest in science. At first, Veniamin began to engage in public law. The theme of his work was the People's Republic of China.

From the first year, Veniamin dreamed of graduate school. Especially attracted by the example of graduate student Sergey Sergeyevich Alekseeva, in the future of an outstanding lawyer, corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, with whom fate later failed him constantly.

Best days

The final exam was attended by Professor Moscow State University August Alekseevich Mishin. After the answer, Yakovleva, he, referring to the Rector of the Institute, did not even ask, but as if stated: "Of course, take it to graduate school?!" Veniamine caught his breath, but understood the examination of the examination commission - no! Only years later, later, she accidentally saw his personal matter, in which someone's "caring" hand with a red pencil was carefully allocated to a ridiculous statement that grandfathers Yakovlev were fists. The absurdity was also the fact that they were listed by all the canons of that time with midjaps and were never subjected to decking.

In the 50s, in the Ministry of Justice, a network of legal circles preparing judges, prosecutors, researchers based on secondary education on the accelerated program for two years. It is such an educational institution in 1953. In Yakutsk, Veniamin Yakovlev and his friend Vladimir Postolov elected for his first work. They became teachers of the theory of state and law and criminal law in legal school. Having worked at school without a small year and a half, V. Yakovlev still remained the youngest of the school inhabitants, including students. When in December 1954, the question arose about the appointment of it, the Komsomolman 22 years, to the position of director of this school, he was recommended in the members of the CPSU.

In 1956, legal schools like Yakutsk were closed. V.F. Yakovlev goes to work in the prosecutor's office of the Yakut ASSR. It became a turning event in the life of a young lawyer, since it was as a prosecutor Veniamin Fedorovich first begins to deal with civil law.

By the nature of their activities, V.F. Yakovlev at that time often visited various meetings of the prosecution workers. One of these meetings was held in Novosibirsk. Veniamina Fedorovich had a unique opportunity to call in Sverdlovsk, to see a family, meet friends, to talk with the leadership of the Native Institute. Conversation with the rector has developed successfully: Veniamin gets an invitation to graduate school.

The topic of the candidarian dissertation was prompted by the changes that took place at the time in society. Since 1958, there has been a tendency for the legalization of commodity-money relations. It expressed, in particular, in departure from mandatory, essentially tax, collective farm supplies of food. At the suggestion of N.S. Khrushchev, the state should have purchased products from collective farms. All this was very fresh and relevant, and therefore the question of the contract of contracting agricultural products was worried about many scientists and became the subject of Ph.Daters of V.F. Yakovlev.

After its successful protection in 1963, V.F. Yakovlev becomes a consistently senior teacher, associate professor and, soon, Dean of the Evening Faculty of the Sverdlovsk Law Institute. Career scientist successfully develops. He is prescribed by the Vice-Rector of the Institute for Research, choose the head of the department. In this capacity, he contributes to the introduction of new specializations. Among them is the legal service in the economy, the judicial-prosecutorial, the investigative destination in the preparation of graduates, as well as the approach of learning to legal practice.

In 1973, V.F. Yakovlev defends his doctoral dissertation on the "civil and legal method of regulating public relations", which became, according to his own statement, the main thing about his life. The authority of the scientist is growing, he is appointed by the Deputy Chairman of the Scientific and Methodological Council on the law of the USSR Minvuz.

On the second half of the 80s there are deep changes in the life of V.F. Yakovlev. In August 1987, he was transferred to Moscow and appointed the director of the All-Union Research Institute of Law Sciences, later renamed the Institute of Soviet State Construction and Legislation at the Supreme Council of the USSR (now the Institute of Legislation and Comparative Law under the Government of the Russian Federation). During these years, the Institute was fully involved in the development of new types of bills. It was the Institute in collaboration with the Committee on Legislation at the Supreme Council of the RSFSR, presented by such high-class lawyers, as S.S. Alexseev and Yu.K. Kalmykov, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, in the face of Academician V.N. Kudryavtsev, developed the foundations of civil law of the USSR, found the basis for the future of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. To a large extent, they became a regulatory framework for proclaiming and becoming a legal state, the idea of \u200b\u200bwhich was first sounded at the XIX party conference. It is not by chance that one of the six adopted by this fateful conference of resolutions was called "On Legal Reform" and meant the unconditional rule of laws, not states and officials.

In 1989, V.F. Yakovlev, as director of the institute, scored such authority among specialists and politicians that his nomination of the USSR Minister of Justice was quite logical and natural. Upon approval by the Supreme Council of the USSR, he proposed the concept of the development of the ministry, which suggested the refusal of dogmatism, the institutions that have established the basis for the official concept of the Ministry of Justice. One of the first practical cases of the new Minister of Justice of the USSR was the reduction of the Nomenclature of posts requiring approval by the Minister, improving the independence and responsibility of ministers of justice and the Supreme Courts of the Union republics for the selection of personnel, for organizing the work of the entire legal economy. The main direction in the work of the Ministry of Justice and his leader was the preparation of a regulatory framework for democratization and the reform of the USSR economy, through consistent market transformations.

The Ministry of Justice walked in his work with an obvious advance of social and political events in the state. So, the new field of his activity was the registration of public associations in those years. With the adoption of relevant regulations, the legal and legitimate activities of political parties, public self-government organizations, religious associations, unions of creative figures, those structures, without which life cannot be submitted russian society On the eve of the XXI century.

For this period, there has been a long-standing systematization of the legislation of the SSR Union and the continuation of work on the draft law. The development of the law "On the status of judges of the Russian Federation" was the real achievement. As a result, new principles that exclude party and administrative control over the courts were introduced in the practice of justice.

In the sphere of the Ministry of Justice of the USSR in the period 1989-1990. There was a solution to the most complex problems of the time: legal issues related to national and interethnic conflicts (Nagorno-Karabakh, Tbilisi, etc.), freedom of movement of citizens, transformation of the institution of registration under the transition to a market economy, new labor legislation, copyright, Laws on joint-stock companies, joint ventures - all of them were embodied in legal and regulatory acts, were developed with the direct participation of V.F. Yakovlev, became the basis of a new economic system, folding in the Soviet Union at that time.

In the context of the collapse of the USSR, the Union ministry lost its constructiveness and perspective. Analyzing the current situation, V.F. Yakovlev foresaw that the economy will become uniting for the "running" republics, the legal regulation of which will certainly lead to the need for economic proceedings. Under these conditions, the state arbitration in the form in which he existed in the USSR should have been reformed into economic courts. The position of the Chief State Arbitrator in 1990 remained vacant. Veniamin Fedorovich himself went to the Supreme Council as a request to appoint it to this post. By the time of his approval, the Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR was adopted by the "Law on the Arbitration Court of the USSR", in accordance with whom V.F. Yakovlev was now called the Chairman of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the USSR.

From the end of 1991, V.F. Yakovlev was a state legal advisor under the President of the USSR, the head of the legal service of the President of the USSR.

After signing the Belovezh Agreements, the field of its activities is becoming exclusively Russian Federation. Since 1992, Veniamin Fedorovich is the chairman of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation. The main activity of V.F. Yakovlev is becoming the formation of the Russian judicial arbitration system. In these years, he is actively involved in the development and implementation of the Federal Constitutional Law "On Arbitration Courts in the Russian Federation" and the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. As the first chairman of the Russian Federation, V.F. Yakovlev stands at the origins of the currently formed and successfully functioning system of arbitration courts of the Russian Federation.
