She briefly writes about today’s Hungarian ethics codes in the legal profession and about the circumstances that generated the codification of ethical rules. It shows how changes took place in the ethics code of judges between 1993 and 2015, what arguments were made. The article analyzes code development in the post 2015-period. It refers to the regulations of other countries as well. It details the Code of Ethics of Judges. The purpose of the Code was to establish the moral norms to be followed by judges to strengthen public confidence in the judiciary. It sets out the ethical requirements of the judicial profession as a guideline, provides support for knowing ethical risks and defends judges attentive to their profession. For example, judges must exercise their judicial functions independently and free of external influence. Judicial independence is not the private right of judges but the foundation of judicial impartiality and a constitutional right of all legal entities. The Hungarian Constitutional Court’s related decisions are also included in the description, especially in connection with judicial independence.
