He studied at Chernivtsi University and Lviv University, graduating in 1914. On the outbreak of World War I he was recruited into the Austro-Hungarian Army, but was captured by the Russians in 1915. He supported the October Revolution of 1917 and in 1919 was sent to Ukraine, where he took part in the foundation of the Ukrainian SSR, acting as its second Prosecutor General from 1927 to 1930 and People's Commissar of Justice.

He was arrested by the NKVD charges of participation in the "bourgeois-nationalist anti-Soviet organization of the former Borotbists " and "the Ukrainian Military Organisation". He was shot in October, 1937 and posthumously rehabilitated in 1957.^[1]
