The purpose of this study was to identify issues related to the implementation of the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights against Armenia in the cases where the Court found a violation of Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights. Within the scope of the research a number of judgments delivered in respect of Armenia were highlighted, general measures undertaken by the state, as well as relevant legislation, law enforcement practice, responses to the inquiries referred to the competent authorities have been studied and analyzed. In a number of cases lawyers, as well as several judges were interviewed in order to assess the implementation issues in a more comprehensive way. The study revealed problems at the level of legislation and law enforcement practice which lead to the recurrence of similar violations and hinder the proper implementation of ECHR judgments by the state. More importantly, the analysis of the situation and the description of the problems are finalized proposing specific recommendations which should contribute to preventing similar violations in the future.
