The article examines the process of constitutionalization of the legal status of the prosecutor’s office in the context of the mechanism of checks and balances. The transformation of the role of the prosecutor’s office after the constitutional reform of justice in 2016 and its impact on the system of separation of state powers is analyzed. Various scientific approaches to determining the place of the prosecutor’s office in the system of state bodies and the mechanism of checks and balances are considered. The need to rethink the traditional concept of separation of powers is substantiated, taking into account modern trends in state-building and European integration processes. It is determined that the effectiveness of the prosecutor’s office depends not so much on its formal positioning in the system of power as on ensuring its independence and ability to perform constitutional functions.
