Background. The subject of the study is the legal status of a military prosecutor in civil and administrative proceedings. The purpose of the work is a comprehensive study of the legal status of military prosecutors in civil and administrative proceedings. Materials and methods. The research methodology includes the dialectical method of scientific knowledge, as well as private scientific methods: system-structural, logical, concrete socio-logical, formal legal, comparative legal. Results. The article formulates and substantiates the author’s vision of the legal status of a military prosecutor in civil and administrative proceedings. The conclusions, provisions and recommendations formulated in the work can be used: when improving civil procedure and administrative procedure legislation, in the activities of military prosecutors when implementing the function of protecting the rights and legitimate interests of citizens, the state, and an indefinite circle of persons in the courts. Conclusions. The military prosecutor is an equal participant in the judicial process, acting in court as an official of a State body – the military prosecutor’s office, which, on the basis of the law, performs the tasks and functions assigned to the prosecutor’s office. The defense in court by a military prosecutor of the rights, freedoms and interests of a citi-zen is in fact an exception to the general rule, possible only in cases established by law, and consists primarily in protecting the state and public interests-components of the public in-terest.
