The mechanisms for ensuring the rights of persons sentenced to imprisonment in the European space give an opportunity to exercise the rights and legitimate interests of a convicted person. Unfortunately, there are difficulties in relation to the acess to these mechanisms on the part of convicts in Ukraine. All these facts show the urgent need for reforming the criminal-executive legislation.
