Khrushchev - the leader of the Soviet ruling elite. Arbitration law was no exception - in 1960, the Council of Ministers of the USSR approved the new and first post-war Regulations on State Arbitration under the Council of Ministers of the USSR. The article reveals the main provisions of this legal act, intended to resolve economic disputes in the Soviet economy, with an emphasis on organizational and procedural aspects. It is noted that the State Arbitration Court was formed within the framework of the executive branch, therefore it cannot be classified as a judicial body; At the same time, the scope of judicial functions expanded, and this trend subsequently continued - until the establishment, already in post-Soviet Russia, of the institution of an independent arbitration court, the status of which was determined not by the government, but by the legislative body.
