During the intensive development of information technologies (IT), the need for their regulation gradually arises. For forming basic regulation of IT-sphere a basis is needed, which determines the subject of regulation. It’s a complicated task, but its solution will help to determine legal relations stemming from IT-usage. The existing technical definitions are accurate, since they are technical in nature. In some situations there are difficulties in their legal application, it complicates the legal analysis of a specific situation. The legal definition of a particular technology will assist legal professionals and theorists, as it will clarify the essence of relations, help to avoid misconception, support Internet law developing. This study discusses a short list of technologies used in practice in legal, medical and other fields. The author provides an overview of legal definitions at various levels: international, regional and national. The author examines the formation of definitions in Russia and the USA. A comparative analysis of terminology allows us to highlight the laws and features inherent in these countries. The author discusses the definitions of well-known, basic concepts such as the Internet, the user and the definition of technology that is currently widely used - a cloud storage of information.

Active introduction of digital technologies in all spheres of life is one of the main directions of state development as a whole and separate sphere of activity. The issue of using information technologies and systems during forensic examination is the subject of scientific research of many domestic and foreign scientists, but this sphere remains relevant. The introduction of digital technologies in forensic activities is one of the priority areas for the forensic science development at the present stage and has significant development potential. One of the areas of optimization and improvement of forensic activity is the development of methods to automate the formation of forensic experts and unify the description of the research process, identified features, justification and formulation of forensic conclusions, which requires legislative consolidation and regulation, analysis and definition of the subject area and development requirements and algorithms for the operation of the system interface. Unification and standardization of the content of forensic experts' opinions requires the development of common standards and an information system adopted by all subjects of forensic expertise, and meets the needs of practice. The development of an information system for forming an expert opinion and automatically forming an expert opinion will allow formalizing and unifying the description of research and results of forensic examinations, optimizing the time of forensic experts and potentially reducing the number of logical, typographical and technical errors, and simplifying quality control of forensic examinations. The proposed system will not only automate the technical work of registration of research results carried out during forensic examinations, but will also contain research algorithms, which will be stored in the form of data on already conducted research of similar objects (list and sequence of operations, identified features and their parameters).

In the pantheon of approaches open to participants in the pacific settlement of disputes, good offices holds a noteworthy place. The evolution of good offices over the past century is concurrent with a trend of considerable transformation within international law, including – amongst other changes – a move away from a state-led legal order, including in good offices following the emergence of the heads of international organisations as its prime users, and a process of legalisation and specialisation within the subject that has entirely altered its character. These changes have led to a redefinition of good offices that stresses the actor carrying out the role above the form that it takes. To accompany these changes in practice, there is a need for a transformation in the legal analysis and definition of good offices. One potential option in achieving this end is Bell'slex pacificatoria. If good offices is to continue to play a significant role in the settlement of violent conflicts, a fully developed legal analysis is necessary to grasp both its historical development and its potential future role.

The author presents a comparative legal analysis of the segments of construction law in Croatian and Slovenian law, with the aim of pointing out the differences that exist between them. Considering that this is a relatively new legal institute, which was somewhat earlier standardized in Slovenian law in relation to Croatian law, in the introductory exposition, a brief review was made of the occurrence of the construction law and the reasons for earlier non-regulation. The second part of the paper is dedicated to the stipulations of Act on ownership and Property Code of the Republic of Slovenia. This part refers to the conceptual definition of the construction law, in order to classify it in a certain broader unit, to which it belongs - genus proximum - searching for the closest relative, emphasizing the important characteristics that make it specific in relation to other property rights. In the third part of the paper, the author analyses the stipulations related to the subject of building rights, with reference to the dilemmas that exist in that sense, both in Croatian and Slovenian jurisprudence, as well as in the legal science of some other countries. The fourth part of the paper is dedicated to the stipulations that regulate the acquisition and duration of construction rights. Considering that derivative acquisition, among other things, characterizes the existence of bases and ways of acquisition, first possible bases of acquisition are presented, and then entry in appropriate public books as a way of acquiring this right and its duration. The concluding part of the paper summarizes the results of the analysis and evaluates the considered legal solutions, with the presentation of reasoned objections to the existing regulations, all with the aim of eventual amendment of the right to build in the legal systems in question.

В статье рассматриваются проблемы изменения правового статуса осужденного в связи с признанием его злостным пенитенциарным нарушителем. Проводится сравнительно-правовой анализ терминов «отрицательно характеризующийся осужденный» и «злостный пенитенциарный нарушитель». Автором отмечается, что понятие исследуемого субъекта встречается в нормативных актах уголовно-исполнительного характера и актах официального судебного толкования, вместе с тем до сих пор не имеет легального закрепления в виде нормы-дефиниции. В статье раскрываются вопросы возникновения правоспособности, дееспособности и деликтоспособности злостного пенитенциарного нарушителя. Формулируется вывод о том, что в ходе признания осужденного злостным пенитенциарным нарушителем он приобретает специфические признаки, которые определяют его особое положение. В заключение автором предлагается доктринальное определение исследуемого субъекта. The article deals with the problems of changing the legal status of a convicted person in connection with the recognition of him as a habitual penitentiary offender. A comparative legal analysis of the terms «negatively characterized convict» and «habitual penitentiary offender» is carried out. The author notes that the concept of the subject under study is found in normative acts of a penal nature and acts of official judicial interpretation, however, it still does not have legal consolidation in the form of a norm-definition. The article deals with the issues of legal capacity, legal capability and tortious capacity of a habitual penitentiary offender. The conclusion is formulated that in the course of recognition of a convicted person as a habitual penitentiary offender, he acquires specific features that determine his special position. In conclusion, the author offers a doctrinal definition of the subject under study.

Abstract The expressions tack, tackiness, and stickiness have been in use since the beginning of the rubber industry. During the years their meaning has changed considerably. The first occasion where tackiness was mentioned was in the case of crude natural rubber. The surface of the rubber became tacky or sticky during storage. This phenomenon has been thoroughly discussed in the literature. As a general conclusion it was accepted that both oxidation and depolymerisation occurred. Three factors were reported to be the cause of these processes: light, traces of copper, and manganese. From our point of view we would call this effect stickiness, as we are only interested in the building tack of rubber. In the period when the only rubber was natural rubber and high loadings of highly active fillers were not generally used in compounds, building tack was no problem. Building tack was first mentioned in a publication by Griffith and Jones in 1928. They started their experiments by measuring tack in their search for methods to prevent cotton liners from sticking to unvulcanized rubber. One would have expected much work on the measurement and improvement of tack in Germany and Russia during the development of synthetic rubbers. However, this only proved to be the case in Russia. The first publication available was the translation of an article by Voyutskii and Margolina in 1957. From Voyutskii's work we were able to trace the first article in 1935 by Zhukov and Talmud, who studied the adhesive power of synthetic rubber. In the USA the first theoretical approach to the subject was by Josefowitz and Mark in 1942, who at that time did not realize the difference between stickiness and tack. This difference became clear when lack of tack became the big problem in the use of synthetic rubber. In many cases it was found that addition of resins and softeners gave a very sticky compound which had no building tack at all. The tack problem was first discussed at the ASTM symposium on the application of synthetic rubbers in 1944 by Juve who gave a definition of building tack. From that time, the problem has been studied regularly, especially from the practical side, to find ways and means to improve the building tack of synthetic rubbers.

The choice of the old and terminally ill to die at home has been the subject of various types of research. However, one of the aspects of this subject, which has been investigated very little, is its legal context. The absence of such legal research is contrasted by the vast amount of academic writing on the legal aspects of the right to die with dignity and euthanasia. The object of this article is to analyze and break down the “right to die at home” into its different legal components. This legal analysis will be based on Professor Isaiah Berlin’s definition of two different concepts of liberty: negative and positive freedoms. The main conclusion from the legal analysis presented in this article is that it is important to understand that at the legal level the right to die at home is dependent on many different elements. These elements may be classed in two basic categories: negative and positive freedoms and rights. Even though the former is a necessary condition of the latter, without the latter the first remains purely theoretical for many old people.

The article examines existing approaches and different opinions of scholars-penitentiaries regarding the legal nature of separation of prisoners sentenced to imprisonment. The legal analysis of positions of scholars in the field of criminal executive law, who investigated the essence of separation of prisoners sentenced to imprisonment in various aspects, made it possible to highlight following approaches: 1) principle of institution of execution of punishment in the form of imprisonment; 2) means of ensuring the regime; 3) condition for implementation of principle of differentiation; 4) special classification issue; 5) type of classification; 6) intrageneric institution; 7) criminal-executive means of preventing crimes in correctional institutions. The authors come to the conclusion that separation of convicts is an inter-sectoral institution (in a broad sense), and also belongs to the category of internal penal means (in a narrow sense). Arguing this point of view, the general constant and special features of legal institutions and legal means and their application to the subject of research are considered. The authors identify and substantiate the main tasks of separation of prisoners and its functions, which are an external manifestation of its essence and determine the social and legal purpose, functional connection with other phenomena. As a result of study of the legal nature, the author’s definition of separate maintenance of those sentenced to imprisonment is proposed, its goals are highlighted and argued.

Problem statement. Due to the market transformations that have occurred recently in the economy of Ukraine, the opportunities of participants in property turnover regarding the freedom to conclude various types of contracts have significantly expanded. When concluding civil law contracts, a number of questions arise related to the definition of its subject. The purpose of this work is a General study and analysis of the subject of a civil contract. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve the following tasks: 1) to perform a legal analysis of such an essential condition of a civil contract as the conditions on the subject of the contract; 2) to study the debatable theoretical aspects of understanding the subject of a civil contract, which will reveal its essence and analyze its constituent elements; 3) to establish the subject of certain types of civil contracts. Analysis of recent research. The problem of contractual legal relations has been studied in the scientific works of both Ukrainian and foreign civil scientists in various aspects. M. M. Agarkov, M. I. Braginsky, V. V. Vetriansky, O. O. Krasavchikov, V. V. Luts, G. F. Shershenevich and others made a significant contribution in this area. However, the subject of the civil contract is poorly covered, it is quite relevant and requires further research. Presentation of the main material. The article provides a legal analysis of such an essential condition of a civil contract as the conditions on the subject of the contract. The author studies debatable theoretical aspects of understanding the subject of a civil contract, which allowed to reveal its essence and analyze its constituent elements. The subject of certain types of civil contracts is established. Conclusions. So, a detailed analysis of such an essential condition of a civil contract as the conditions on the subject of the contract is of great scientific and practical importance, since the legislator does not sufficiently regulate this issue, in particular, the subject of certain types of civil contracts is not defined at the legislative level, which hinders the possibility of proper protection of the rights of the parties.
