Nowadays the processes of democratization, liberalization, integration of Ukraine into European and world space take place. Theundisputed significance for these processes is the signing of the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union.Thus, the rapprochement of Ukraine with the European community, which has taken place in recent years, affects the sphere of privatelaw relations, which make up the subject matter of civil law. Taking all mentioned above into account corporate relations and its nationalregulation is critical issue for analysis.The provisions of national legislation regarding the definition of corporate rights and respective legal relations are analyzed. Specialattention is paid to the position of the civil law doctrine representatives in terms of legal nature and features of corporate legal relations.Analysis of current doctrine gives ground to state that corporate relations are considered to be a special type of civil legal relationsthat make up the subject of civil law. At the same time recognition of corporate relations as a type of civil ones makes it possible to useall the civil law tools and mechanism of legal protection and enforcement for corporate relations regulation.The relevant practice of the highest judicial bodies of Ukraine is analyzed. The analysis of the legislation and judicial practicehas given an opportunity to stress some problems that need to be eliminated. To our mind, one of the main problems is “fragmentation”of the legislator’s attention to the definition of corporate legal relations, which creates the ground for numerous discussions. At the sametime there are critical problems in judicial practice. For instance, we cannot agree with the Supreme Court’s attempts to find corporatelegal relations in those types of legal entities in which such legal relations do not take place at all.It is crucial to stress that recodification of civil legislation in Ukraine has its direct impact on private legal relations system andits mechanism of legal regulations.

Introduction. The legal description of the contractual grounds for restrictions and encumbrances on the right of ownership of real estate can be provided only after a comprehensive study of the common features of the contractual structures, which establish the relevant rights and obligations of the parties. The main common feature of such agreements is the emergence of appropriate property benefits for the owner, which is to enable the owner to satisfy their interests at the expense of someone else's real estate, resulting in restrictions and encumbrances on property subject to the contract. It should also be emphasized that each subjective right has its limits of exercise, including the subjective right of ownership, as well as other real property rights. Of course, the nature of such restrictions must be different and depend on the content and nature of the restricted right, its object and the grounds for the restrictions. That is, restrictions on property rights and other property rights cannot be the same. Restrictions on property rights are established in the interests of society and arise by law, as well as in the interests of individuals (on the basis of law, contract, court decision), and restrictions on other property rights are primarily due to protection of the property from which they originate and the legitimate interests of the owner. In our opinion, the category of real contracts should include those types of contracts relating to real estate, including contracts of encumbrance of property rights on the basis of which the rights subject to state registration arise. Purpose and objectives of the study The main common feature of such agreements is the emergence of appropriate property benefits for the owner, which is to enable the owner to satisfy their interests at the expense of someone else's real estate, resulting in restrictions and encumbrances on property subject to the contract. Therefore, we can argue for the existence of a certain generalizing type of contract, the features of which are inherent in all its subspecies, in particular, contracts for the establishment of easements, superficies, emphyteusis, mortgage agreement. Such an agreement in the legal literature is called by some authors as a real contract. However, issues concerning its legal nature, place in the system of civil law contracts remain debatable. Research methods. The research carried out in the article is based on the assessment of generally accepted approaches to defining the characteristic features of problematic issues of contractual grounds for the emergence of restrictions and encumbrances of property rights to real estate. It should be emphasized that these issues are controversial due to the lack of clear legislative regulation, which leads to imperfect legal regulation and violations of the rights of participants in property turnover. Research conclusions. As a result of the study, the idea is given that in the current legislation of Ukraine due to the lack of a clear concept of the relationship between the category of "encumbrance" and "restriction" of property rights, as well as the uncertainty of property rights, some questions remain about the classification of certain rights accordingly, about the types of material contract, this issue is debatable and needs further study. It is possible to make about polystructurality of the real contract that causes division of this type of the civil law contract into kinds and subspecies. In our opinion, such a division depends on the legal nature and scope of the relevant types of restrictions and encumbrances on the right of ownership of real estate, which are proposed by current civil law.

The article presents the basic solutions to be applied in the so-called annuity real rights. These are limited real rights (iura in rem), which permit obtaining certain revenues from real property on a regular basis. Their essential purpose is to secure specified periodical benefits, primarily those of a pecuniary nature. These rights show some similarities, on the one hand, to pledge-type rights (especially mortgage) and, on the other hand, to easements. Currently, no annuity real charges of any kind have been regulated under the Polish civil law (since the entry of the Civil Code into force in 1965), as they were perceived, albeit incorrectly, as a reminiscence of the epoch of feudalism. However, they are still popular in other European civil law legislations, for example in the German, Swiss, Austrian, Spanish, Czech, Estonian, Slovenian or Croatian laws. The prototype for this category of rights is the real burden (German: Reallast). This paper presents various solutions for the latter institution as well as related institutions, such as the Swiss “annuity letter” (German: Gült, French: lettre de rente) and the German annuity land charge (German: Rentengrundschuld). Different concepts for the legal nature of the annuity rights have been presented, in particular the German real burden, which formed the basis for proposals of solutions in the work of the Polish Civil Law Codification Committee at the beginning of the 21st century. The potential usefulness of the real burden rights indicated in this article confirms the legitimacy of introducing this type of legal institution into the Polish law.

The subject of the research within the framework of the article is the criminal procedure institute for the detention of a person on suspicion of committing a crime. The legal nature of this institution is analyzed, and comments are given on the normative legal acts and judicial practice regulating the issues of detention. The theoretical basis of the research is based on the publications of the last two decades on this problem, in particular, reflecting the discussion of the process scientists S. A. Shafer, S. B. Rossinsky and A. A. Tarasov, the subject of which was the issue of the legal nature of a suspect detention in a criminal case. In the paper, the authors ask the following questions: What is the detention of a person on suspicion of committing a crime in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation? From what moment does the detained person acquire the status of a suspect? Is it possible to detain a person before initiating a criminal case? The study concludes that a person acquires the actual status of a suspect from the moment of direct detention, that is, before documenting this status and, as a result, before initiating a criminal case. Amendments to the articles of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation are proposed, and the authors` versions of the definitions of the concepts «detention of a suspect», «the moment of actual detention» and «pre-trial proceedings» are given.

Does forgiveness nullify the effects of previous disinheritance? The legal nature of forgiveness is the subject of passionate debates among the representatives of civil law doctrine. According to the dominant position in the literature, forgiveness is an act of affection or its manifested expression of forgiveness of the perpetrator of experienced injustice and related to this grudge. This institution has been applied three times in the Civil Code — once with the donation agreement, twice in regulations of inheritance law. Article 1010 § 1 provides that a testator cannot disinherit eligible for legal portion if he forgave him. The wording of the above article indicates that accomplishment of disinheritance in case if testator eligible for legal portion has previously forgiven. The legislator did not, however, determine the effects of forgiveness in relation to previous disinheritance. In the act of 1971, the Supreme Court accepted that such forgiveness would automatically nullify the effects of disinheritance, and could be made in any form. In recent years, lower courts have begun to question the Supreme Court's position, and judges increasingly refer to the critical statements of numerous doctrines. As it was rightly stated, admitting the possibility of invoking the forgiveness made after disinheritance poses a serious threat to the realization of the testator’s will, who, by forgiving, does not necessarily want to revoke the effects of his previous disinheritance. The postulate of de lege ferenda is, according to the author of the article, giving of freedom of judging the effects of forgiveness to the courts and each examination of the forgiving testator’s will on the possible abatement of the consequences of previous disinheritance.]]>

The contract of sale of the future thing in which the land is the product deserves special attention. Atthe moment, it has developed a uniform judicial practice regarding the individualization of an unformedland plot as the subject of a contract of sale of a future immovable. In cases where, in accordance with thelaw, a land plot acquires the qualities of a divisible thing, the object of civil turnover can be not only thecorresponding land plot as a whole, but also its part, which in this case acquires the status of an independentland plot for the formation of a land plot. It seems that only after establishing (changing) the location of theboundaries of the land, i. e. formation of a land plot, it may be an object of land and civil law relations, maybe an object of ownership and other rights to land. The current legislation does not contain a ban on thepurchase and sale of a land plot, the right of ownership for which at the time of conclusion of the contractof sale was not registered in the established manner, however, the individualization of a land plot by landsurveying and cadastral registration is a prerequisite for the land the plot became the subject of a contractof sale of a future immovable.

The management of public real estate has been regulated in many legal acts, among which the Act of August 21, 1997 on real estate management plays the greatest role. The definitions contained in it are intended to explain the most important concepts related to the subject of this act. However, with regard to the definition of land real estate, we are dealing with a repetition of what was defined by the provisions of civil law. Such a situation raises justified interpretation doubts, which may have significant consequences in the application of this act. The existence of two definitions for the same object is undesirable and the Real Estate Management Act should be amended in this respect by including an appropriate reference to the provisions of civil law.

On September 1,1987, the Alberta Land Surveyors’ Association implemented a codified standard for the certification of building locations relative to property boundaries, i.e., building location certificates. Despite considerable discussion on the subject between members of the surveying profession and mortgage lenders, development officers and lawyers over the last several years, the implementation of this standard received instant attention from all participants in real estate transactions. The reaction to the implementation of this standard for real estate surveys varied from outright hos¬tility on the part of some purchasers, who view the requirement for a surveyors’ certificate as an unneces¬sary and extra cost imposed by mortgage companies, to total acceptance of the standard as a bare mini¬mum by most solicitors, who fully comprehend the problems where the paper title does not agree with the physical attributes of the property on the ground. Meetings were held with various interested groups to discuss the requirements of the Real Property Report with regard to determination of “marketability of title” and in particular “extent of title.”

The author pays attention to the issues of the dynamics of obligatory relationships, providing the possibility of their participants’ substitutions. It is noted that the content of the current civil legislation of Ukraine creates grounds for identifying the notions of “substitution of the debtor in the obligation” and “transfer of debt”, which is unacceptable. The author draws a distinction between these notions, alleges that the transfer of debt is only one of the reasons for the substitution of the debtor in the obligation.        Due to the fact that a basic factor that resulted a perception of the synonymy of the notions “replacement of debtor” and “translation of debt” is an imperfect formulation of Art. 520 of Civil Code of Ukraine, in a perspective legislation it is necessary substantially to extend the grounds of replacement of debtor in an obligation.        It is expedient to define in text of this norm, which one legal facts, that entail legal succession, also result in replacement of debtor in an obligation. These facts may include: inheritance, reorganization of legal entity by confluence, joining, division and transformation, allotment that is not the type of reorganization by the law, agreement on transfer of debt.      The grounds for replacing the debtor (in part of transferring debts) should be considered a transfer of contract providing for the transfer of rights and obligations in a mutual obligation; acquisition of rights of the enterprise as a single property complex, which may include debts under part 2 of Art. 191 Civil Code of Ukraine; changing the owner of the thing that is the subject of the contract, as a result of which the acquirer becomes the assignee of the party both in terms of rights and duties (part 4 of article 358, part 1 of article 770 of the Civil Code of Ukraine); other grounds defining features of the succession of obligations.          A critical attitude was expressed regarding the expediency of introducing into civil law such a ground for replacing a debtor as accepting a debt. It is argued that acceptance of a debt can be understood as an extremely wide area of different legal relationships, that could be associated with substituting the previous debtor with a new one and causing succession, or aiming at changes in the subjects, not connected with the substituting of the debtor and not causing the emergence of the succession. Attention is paid to the peculiarities of judicial practice in the field of application of the legislation on the substitution of a debtor in obligations.
