Operative Measures

Currently the problem of countering socially dangerous actions is viewed as a national project that declares the right of citizens to safe living conditions. A growing attention is paid to the possibilities that citizens and law enforcers have to lawfully counteract the criminal expansion, to protect themselves and other people through lawful use of force against persons committing dangerous infringements. Besides, the citizens themselves are willing to help law enforcement officers, and both of these groups need secure legislative instruments that authorize inflicting harm on the interests protected by criminal law without fearing legal responsibility. The existing state of legislation and its enforcement cannot satisfy the interests of either those people who show their civic initiative in counteracting the criminal expansion, or the representatives of law enforcement involved in operative measures aimed at indentifying and detecting illegal actions. We believe that the current norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, primarily the norms of Chapter 8, are obviously not sufficient. Besides, their legislative formulations are far from perfect and make it possible to transfer the guilt for inflicting harm onto persons who inflicted this harm in the conditions precluding the criminal character of their actions. The authors suggest changing the legal regulation of these circumstances in criminal legislation and, on this basis, considerably amending the contents of Chapter 8 with new circumstances with the goal of improving the effectiveness of its practical implementation.

The article analyzes the place and role of fines in the system of criminal penalties and looks intosome trends in its establishing by the legislator and application by the court. We investigate property protection issues that have always been in the focus of attention of legislators and legal science and that have never lost their relevance, because they relate to the inviolable vital interests of an individual, society and the state. In the framework of the topic under consideration, we undertake to explain our viewpoint on three basic terms: “fine”, “property” and “punishment effectiveness”. We conclude that property should be considered (among other things in the establishment ofthe elements of a crime) as a complex multifaceted phenomenon associated with ensuring the security of individuals, society and the state from various threats, including those of an intangible nature. We analyze fine as a penalty and fine imposed by the court as a criminal law measure in the aspect of legal regulation and application practice.We carry out comparative analysis of the rules on the protection of property and the application of penalties in the form of a fine for encroachment upon it on the example of the criminal legislation of the Republic of Belarus.As a result, we conclude that the importance of fine in the structure of penal sanctions is increasing; we note that there is a trend to increase the use of a court imposed fine as an exemption from penal sanctions. At the same time,we point outthat this approach used bylegal professionals does not fully fit in with the legally established principle of social justice as the goal of punishment.Crimes against property should be considered as a threat not only to property, but also to the life and health of people (Article 162 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), moral, spiritual and other values of an individual and society. We believe this approach should be used both in legislative and law enforcement practice, including cases of applying a court imposed fine.

The Right

In modern Russia, the problem of countering socially dangerous manifestations acts as a national project that proclaims the right of citizens to safe living conditions. Much attention is paid to the ability of law enforcement officers to resist criminal expansion legally, to be able to protect themselves and others by means of legal use of force against persons who commit socially dangerous encroachments. Guided by the concept of deviance, the authors made an attempt to analyze the problem of lawful behavior by law enforcement officers, primarily police officers. The researchers came to a reasonable conclusion about the need to adjust the current state of affairs. The legislation and the practice of its application cannot satisfy the interests of representatives of law enforcement agencies engaged in official activities for the protection of public order and ensuring of public safety. Imperfect legislation is the main reason of deviant behavior of police officers who are in permanent stress situations. Their abundance also provokes deviant behavior of police officers, which sometimes manifests itself in extreme brutality towards lawbreakers. From our point of view, the current norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, primarily the norms of Chapter 8, are not clear enough. Moreover, their legislative wording is far from being perfect and gives the opportunity to shift the blame for causing harm to persons who do it in circumstances that exclude the criminality of the act. The proposed careful adjustment of the norms of criminal legislation will significantly increase the effectiveness of their practical implementation, instill confidence in the consciousness of police officers about the importance and possibility of offensive legitimate steps to influence crime, as well as to increase their legal protection.

Current Stage

At the current stage of social development, the protection of the interests of a person, society and the state from publically dangerous infringements is reaching a conceptually new level. Russian and foreign legislation, as well as theoretical publications, are paying more and more attention to the possibilities of the lawful infliction of harm under the circumstances that preclude the criminal character of an action. The abovementioned norms have a special place in criminal or other legislation because they contain clauses that allow inflicting harm on public relations protected by criminal law. Criminal legislation, recognized worldwide as penal in its essence (e.g. the Penal Code — «penal» being the synonym of «retributive», «punitive» and «vindictive») still contains a specific chapter devoted to such circumstances and includes norms that define the conditions and grounds for inflicting harm on public relations protected by criminal legislation, and this harm is recognized as lawful and even publically beneficial. These norms should be viewed as a specific legal phenomenon not only in Russian, but also in foreign criminal legislation and other types of legislation. However, the analysis of law enforcement practice does not allow to judge the effectiveness of their use by both law enforcement employees and citizens who protects their lawful rights and interests against publically dangerous infringements or engage in other publically beneficial behavior. In our opinion, the problems of law enforcement are connected with legislative support, and specifically with the area of substantive law. The authors of the article summarize many possibilities of using the norms of Chapter 8 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation that have not been realized yet. They take into account and stress the isolation and independence of these norms, the necessity of their presence and reflection specifically in the criminal legislation. The authors also recommend to change the method of legal regulation of the circumstances that preclude the criminal character of the action and to use it as a basis for introducing significant changes in the contents of the abovementioned norms with the aim of improving the effectiveness of their enforcement in practice.

The research issue is to identify the shortcomings of legal management of tax responsibility of banks in case of their non-execution of tax authorities’ decisions, as well as to define the possible directions of improvement of legislation and law enforcement practice in this sphere. The aims and objectives of the research are as follows: (1) to analyze the provisions of Article 134 and Article 135 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, which establish the responsibility of banking organizations as participants of the fiscal relations and to analyze the application of provisions of these articles by judicial and tax authorities; (2) to identify the problems of bringing to responsibility credit banking organizations for their non-execution of tax authorities’ decisions; (3) to develop recommendations for improvement of legal regulation. The methods of the research include analysis, analogy, legalistic method and integrated interpretation. The results of the research are as follows. It has been justified that the sum of debt of a taxpayer, established to bring banks to legal responsibility under Article 134 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, shall not include the sums of fines and penalties, as the bank is not a real participant of legal relations ‘tax authority – taxpayer’ and is deprived of the right to appeal the sum, which serves as the basis for establishing the sum of fine.

Dialectical Analysis

When qualifying vandalism, law enforcement officers often experience difficulties in distinguishing a criminal act from a minor one, which formally contains signs of a crime, but does not pose a public danger. Due to the evaluation of the signs of both vandalism and the insignificance of the act, there is a high probability of qualification errors in which insignificant acts are recognized as criminal, or on the contrary, the actions of persons who committed vandalism are recognized as unapproachable. To date, there is no single doctrinal opinion defining the criteria of insignificance, a similar situation is observed in judicial and investigative practice. For these reasons, the topic is relevant and requires a comprehensive analysis. The purpose of the study is to consider the points of view of researchers of interest to the science of criminal law and law enforcement officers. The tasks are to establish rules for the qualification of criminal and insignificant vandalism, which contribute to the adoption of the right decision by law enforcement subjects, to make scientifically based proposals for the application of Article 14, Part 2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in relation to acts that formally fall under the signs of a crime under Article 214 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. During the research, the following methods are used: dialectical, analysis, synthesis and sociological. As a result of the analysis, the most common mistakes made by the law enforcement officer are identified, the points of view of scientists on the qualification of vandalism are considered. Signs of insignificance were also investigated, taking into account practical and doctrinal positions. As conclusions, the signs of insignificance are proposed, which are subject to establishment by law enforcement agencies, in order to correctly qualify vandal actions.

The relevance of the work is determined by the fact that the right to life belongs to the basic constitutional human rights, therefore, its observance and protection is the duty of the state. Despite its undeniable importance, today the right to life anywhere in the world is not really ensured in sufficient quantities. The constitutional consolidation of the right to life raises a number of issues related to the concept, nature, legislative and practical implementation of this right. It should be noted that various aspects of the human right to life were considered in the scientific works of G.B. Romanovsky, O.G. Selikhova, T.M. Fomichenko, A.B. Borisova, V.A. Ershov and other Russian authors. The aim of the study is to study and comparative analysis of the legal content of the constitutional norm that defines the right to life, to comprehend and identify possible problems of the implementation of this right. To achieve this goal, this article discusses relevant issues of ensuring the right to life, proclaimed by Article 20 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and Article 27 of the Constitution of Azerbaijan Republic. The results of a comparative analysis of these constitutional norms and the relevant norms of industry law allow us to determine, that there is no contradiction between Article 20 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and the norms of the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation, which imply the death penalty as an exceptional measure of punishment, because a moratorium has been imposed on the death penalty in the Russian Federation since April 16, 1997. However, after the abolition of the death penalty in the criminal legislation of the Republic of Azerbaijan in 1998, there was a discrepancy between parts II and III of Article 27 of the Constitution of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the criminal legislation of Azerbaijan Republic that requires the introduction of the necessary changes in the content of the analyzed constitutional norm. The value of the work is determined by the fact that the introduction of appropriate changes will contribute to the further improvement of the Constitution of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the effective implementation of the right to life of everyone.
