Introduction. Nowadays, the issue of determining the legal status of the company's share in the own authorized capital of LLC and TDV has become quite acute, as evidenced by the adoption on July 28, 2021 by the Commercial Court of Cassation in Case № 904/1112/20, in which the Court established a new approach legal nature of such a phenomenon and expressed his own position on the understanding of the legislation concerning the legal status of the share of LLC and TDV in its own authorized capital. Given that a limited liability company is the most popular type of legal entity that is chosen to conduct business in Ukraine, the analysis of this issue is relevant. Some scientific value for the development of the transfer of the participant's share are the works of individual authors devoted to the study of the legal nature of the share in the authorized capital but the problems arising around the legal status of the company. in their own authorized capital in these works were only mentioned along with others, but did not receive a detailed separate study. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the normative regulation of the legal status of the company's share in the own authorized capital of LLCs and ALCs, identification of shortcomings in their legal regulation and implementation, as well as the search for ways to eliminate them. Results. One of the most relevant decisions concerning the subject of this article is the Judgment of the Commercial Court of Cassation in case № 904/1112/20 of July 28, 2021. The court in this case found that the votes attributable to the share belonging to the company itself are not taken into account when determining the results of voting at the general meeting of participants on any issues. However, Ukrainian legislation does not contain any direct norms that would prohibit the exercise of the right to manage a company in relation to itself on the basis of a share in its own authorized capital. That is why the company cannot be a participant in relation to itself, although they seem logical, but do not have sufficient regulatory support, and therefore do not allow to be firmly convinced of their compliance with the law. In view of this, it can be stated that there is a significant gap in the national legislation on this issue, which, in our opinion, the Court failed to “fill” with this decision in the case. Conclusion. In the Ukrainian legislation at the level of the Law of Ukraine “On Limited and Additional Liability Companies” Article 25 defines the possibility for a company to acquire a share in its own authorized capital. However, the regulation of the legal status of such a share cannot be called sufficient, due to which in practice there are certain problems in the implementation of the provisions of the legislation concerning the share of the company in its own authorized capital. The solution of these legal problems is necessary to ensure the highest quality and clarity of the law, as well as to form case law with common approaches to understanding a single rule.

Іintroduction. Despite the fact that a significant number of scientific publications by well-known Ukrainian authors are devoted to the issues of legal regulation of credit obligations, at the same time separate studies of banking legislation requirements on "acceptability of collateral" have not been conducted in Ukrainian civil science in recent years. This, taking into account the gradual alignment of banking legislation of Ukraine with the standards of Basel III, and Directive 2002/47 / EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 June 2002 on financial collateral mechanisms, necessitates such scientific research. The aim of the article. On the basis of the analysis of the legislation of Ukraine, the legislation of the European Union, scientific advances in the sphere of civil law and banking legislation, in the context of the analysis of the banking legislation of Ukraine, it is safe for creditors. In order to achieve this goal: 1. Conduct an analysis of civil and legal species for the protection of crops for the subject of іх possible delivery to “acceptable safety” and vrahuvannya banks when opening a credit card. 2. Significantly "quasi-security", as viewed by the banking legislation in the form of "acceptable security" for credit cards. 3. Zdіysniti analysis of the approaches to the legislation of the EU in the field of protection from credit denominations. Results. The methodological basis of the study is general scientific and special legal methods of scientific knowledge. In particular, the dialectical method, the method of analysis and synthesis, the comparative law method, the functional method, the modeling method, etc. Conclusions. First, the banking legislation does not consider as "acceptable collateral" such types of collateral as penalty, surety, deposit, retention. Secondly, the banking legislation considers as "acceptable collateral" not only those specified in Part 1 of Art. 546 of the Civil Code of Ukraine types of security for performance of obligations (pledge, right of trust ownership, guarantee), and other types of security for performance of obligations provided by law or contract (reserve letter of credit, performing the function of financial guarantee, guarantees of public entities, guarantee payment), but also contractual constructions which do not concern types of maintenance of performance of obligations (repo agreements). Thus, the banking legislation considers collateral in credit operations from the economic point of view, according to which "acceptable collateral" is only such liquid collateral that guarantees the rapid recovery of the property of the creditor bank, which suffered damage due to default or improper performance of the counterparty loan obligation, as well as "quasi-collateral", if such is referred by banking legislation to "acceptable collateral". Third, the existence of rules in the banking legislation on the acceptability of collateral in no way affects the right of banks to use any type of collateral provided by law or contract, if the application of such is possible in credit relations, taking into account the legal nature of the relevant types. software. Fourth, the set of regulations of the National Bank of Ukraine on the acceptability of collateral can be considered as an institution of banking law, which includes as rules of civil law governing the types of collateral, other rules of contract law governing other "quasi-collateral" contractual constructions, as well as public-law special norms of banking legislation, which establish additional regulatory requirements for banks to ensure credit operations and calculate credit risk.

The article has investigated the mechanisms of the national (both legal and non-legal) regulation of orphan works, i.e. works the holder (holders) of rights to which is (are) not identified and/or the location of the rights-holder is not established. Orphan works are supposedly protected by copyright, which means the validity of exclusive rights and the potential need to obtain permission from the copyright holder for any form of using the works under consideration, namely: reproduction including digitization, translation, processing, etc. However, in a situation where the right holder is not determined (is unavailable), the user does not have an objective opportunity to obtain such a permission, and the work actually remains unknown to the society, although it can be of artistic, cultural or historical value. Since the beginning of the new millennium, the national legal systems of a number of States have establish a special regime for the legal protection of orphan works, and about 20 states of the world have developed the foundations of such a regime so far. The article analyzes the regulation of orphan works in several states — in the EU and its member states, Great Britain, the USA, Canada, Korea, Japan, India. The authors have determined the foundations of the substantive and conflict of laws regulation of cross-border relations regulating orphan works. Features of regulation of works with an unidentified author in the era of a network society are highlighted: in particular, the need to digitize orphan works, since many of them are in a single copy on the medium ruined by time, and the fact that the digitized work can instantly spread from databases to other jurisdictions. The authors provide for the forecast of possible ways of evolution of legal regulation of relations in question with the use of mechanisms of national and international law.

The paper considers the second attempt made by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in terms of introducing the concept of criminal misconduct into the Russian criminal and criminal procedure legislation, examines the goals of its introduction. The authors conclude that the introduction of a criminal offense in the draft law No. 1112019-7 will entail the need to review some approaches in Russian law: the legal nature of the crime, the ratio of a criminal offense with a minor act and an administrative offense, the elements of a crime with administrative prejudice, the principle of justice. It seems possible to achieve procedural effectiveness, reduce the burden on judges and protect the rights of victims without introducing a criminal offense within the existing criminal and criminal procedural mechanisms related to exemption from criminal liability and expansion of non-rehabilitating grounds for termination of a criminal case or criminal prosecution. It seems possible to use the already established categorization of crimes in relation to crimes of small and medium gravity. In terms of expanding the grounds for terminating a criminal case or criminal prosecution, it is appropriate to use the experience of the German legislator, which provides for the possibility of terminating criminal prosecution on grounds of expediency when the accused fulfills various duties and regulations assigned to him. In German criminal procedure law, the termination of criminal prosecution on grounds of expediency when assigning duties or prescriptions to the accused is the right of the relevant officials and bodies, and not their obligation, since in fact it is an alternative to criminal prosecution. This will allow it to be terminated at a certain stage in the case when there are all legal grounds for criminal prosecution.

Спорт высших достижений является отражением экономического и политического влияния на международном уровне. Россия со времен СССР, являясь одним из мировых лидеров, занимала ведущие позиции в мировом спорте. Вместе с тем последние события в сфере крупных международных соревнований, серьёзные допинг-скандалы, отстранение ведущих спортсменов от соревнований показывают, что успех в современном спорте высших достижений неизменно связан с правильной трактовкой и реализацией на национальном уровне международно-правовых норм, связанных с допингом. Особую роль занимает уголовно-правовая охрана «чистоты» спорта от преступных посягательств в сфере использования и оборота допинговых средств. Автором проанализированы основы законодательства Российской Федерации и Китайской Народной Республики в области противодействия применению запрещённых препаратов в спорте. Осуществлена оценка на-ционального законодательства двух стран в контексте их соответствия междуна-родно-правовым договорам и соглашениям. Проведён сравнительный анализ действующих административных и уголовно-правовых норм. Систематизированы ос-новные положения и подходы в правовом регулировании данной сферы в России и Китае. Отдельно рассмотрены нормы, регламентирующие уголовную ответствен-ность за преступные деяния, в которых допинг является предметом преступления. Также в работе уделяется внимание уголовной политике в сфере борьбы с использованием допинга национальными спортсменами. Автор приходит к выводу, что две страны – на правильном пути, модифицируя нормы, касающиеся допинга, в соответствии с текущими реалиями спорта высших достижений. Несмотря на необ-ходимость внесения некоторых изменений, в дальнейшем принятые меры в России и Китае должны дать положительный результат. Ключевые слова: спорт высших достижений, законодательство, существующее в России и в КНР, субъекты международной спортивной деятельности, правоотношения, ответственность, борьба с допингом, незаконное употребление, наказание. The sport of records reflects the economic and political influence at the international level. Since the times of the USSR, Russia has been one of the world leaders, hold-ing leading positions in world sports. At the same time, the latest events in the sphere of large international competitions, serious doping scandals, banishment of the leading athletes from the competitions demonstrate that a success in modern sports of the highest achievements is inevitably connected with the correct interpretation and implementation of international legal norms related to doping at the national level. A special role is played by criminal legal protection of sport "cleanliness" from criminal encroachments in the sphere of use and circulation of doping means. The author analyzed the basics of legislation of the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China in the sphere of counteraction to the use of prohibited drugs in sport. National legislation of the two countries was assessed in the context of their compliance with international legal treaties and agreements. A comparative analysis of existing administrative and criminal legal norms was made. The main provisions and approaches to legal regulation in this area in Russia and China were systematized. The norms regulating criminal liability for criminal acts in which doping is a subject of crime are considered separately. Also, attention is paid to criminal policy in the sphere of struggle against doping by national sportsmen. The author comes to the conclusion that the two countries are on the right track by modifying the norms concerning doping according to the current realities of the high-performance sport. Despite the necessity to make some changes in the future, the measures taken in Russia and China should give positive results. Keywords: sport of records, legislation existing in Russia and the PRC, subjects of international sports activities, legal relations, liability, the fight against doping, illegal use, punishment.

The relevance of the article is that the property rights of citizens and businesses are not only the basis of Ukraine's economy - they are based on family relations, they are also the material basis of local governments and state organizations, institutions and enterprises. In other words, without their proper registration and protection, it is impossible to ensure any other sphere of public life. In Ukraine, some attention is paid to the legislative definition of property rights and the problem of their state registration. And if with the first part of the outlined, in our opinion, a certain harmony is reached, then the issue of protection of property rights in today's conditions is acute. Its violations, in particular raids on enterprises and other violations of the property rights of individuals and legal entities, although decreased in number, but such facts have not remained in the past. The leading instrument of administrative legal protection of property rights is the institution of state registration of property rights, which in today's conditions is undergoing a process of further transformation and improvement in the effectiveness of protection of the rights of property rights. The artіcle reveals and descrіbes the legal nature of property rіghts and theіr state regіstratіon. Thіs іs done on the basіs of the theory of natural law, the theory of admіnіstratіve law, the theory of cіvіl law, as well as domestіc legіslatіon. Іt іs proved that the legal nature of the state regіstratіon of real rіghts to іmmovable property іs that іn іts іmplementatіon there are specіfіc admіnіstratіve and legal relatіons of a protectіve nature. It is concluded that the legal nature of state registration of property rights to property rights is that in its implementation there are classic administrative and legal protection relations, which involve applicants or their authorized persons, usually private legal entities, and public ( public) registrars as subjects of power. The content of these relations is: 1) the subjective right of the applicant to receive a kind of public protection in formal form (security document) and in essence - to use the entire public apparatus of protection and state coercion in his case in case of violation of registered property rights; 2) the administrative duty of a special subject of public administration (registrar) is a public obligation to carry out such registration. In turn, the registrar has the right to demand from the applicant provided by the current legislation confirmation of ownership of the property rights submitted for registration. Legal facts in the analyzed area of administrative and legal relations are the entry in the register of decisions on state registration, which directly lead to a change or termination of legal relations. A separate line in this area should be noted administrative-legal, administrative-procedural and economic-procedural legal relations that arise when appealing the decisions of state registrars to refuse registration (registration) of property rights to administrative or (and) judicial authorities.

The nature of a subjective right causes the possibility of a criminal proceedings participant willingly, based on own interests and wishes, both to exercise the right exactly and waive it and not to use the provided procedural possibilities. Within the criminal proceedings, the waiver of the right institute is new, underdeveloped. There is practically no understanding of its subject matter and the extent of its exercise at the level of doctrine and jurisprudence as opposed to the foreign experience and civil legal regulation, which causes definite scientific interest in this topic. The paper carries out the look-back analysis of the definition of the nature of the waiver of the subjective right in Russian legal doctrine. This institute is relatively new and little researched in the Russian doctrine, which determines a particular scientific interest in the study of this issue. The paper provides the authors’ description of the waiver of the subjective right. In respect to the Russian criminal procedural legislation, the authors highlight the necessity to distinguish between the refusal of a right and the refusal to exercise a right by the participants in the criminal procedural activity; analyze the differentiated approach of the legislator on this issue. Based on the theoretical and legal analysis, the authors define that the waiver of the subjective right has definite essential features, forms, and ways of implementation, as well as specify the criteria for its admissibility. The paper proves the conclusion that the waiver of the right within the criminal process is possible under such conditions, as the direct willingness of a subject of criminal law relations to waive a right; the awareness of the existence of a particular procedural right and the consequences of such refusal; the form of a waiver showing its voluntary nature by implementing the intended freedom of choice. The authors expressed the proposals aimed at the improvement of norms of current criminal procedural legislation.

The article examines certain legal and organizational problems in the field of the execution of sentences and other measures of a criminal-legal without isolation of a convict from society, presents the results of a survey of employees of penal inspectorates of territorial bodies of the Federal Penal Service and outlines ways to solve existing problems. The study showed that the formation of a system for the execution of sentences without the isolation of a convicted person from society has not yet been completed. Improvement of criminal and penal legislation is required, a clearer legal regulation of the legal responsibility of convicts, further expansion of the range of powers and functions of penal inspectorates, overcoming difficulties in the organizational, personnel, financial and information support of their activities. The article points to the execution of a number of functions unusual for them by the penal inspectorates, the lack of legal regulation of the execution of certain preventive measures and measures of a criminal-legal nature, the procedure for determining the list of objects for convicts to serve sentences in the form of correctional labor and compulsory labor as well as the procedure ensuring the attendance of convicts at the hearing. The legislation does not provide for the initial measures to establish the whereabouts of convicts to punishment in the form of deprivation of the right to occupy certain positions or engage in certain activities, the issue of appealing directly by employees of penal inspectorates of court decisions on representations against convicts is not regulated.

Digital Law

The subject under analysis is the peculiarities around the legal regulation of digital technologies and products arising from digital technologies. The choice of this topic was predetermined by the active development of digital services and digital financial assets, and the necessity to adapt modern legislation to the needs of the digital economy. Despite the fact that several strategies for the development of digital law are being worked out at the level of international organizations, neither in theory nor in practice is there a single understanding of the legal nature of digital technologies and the foundations of their legal regulation.From this perspective, the purpose of this article is to understand the system and the main categories of the digital economy through the prism of fundamental legal institutions, based both on the traditional principles of scientific analysis and on the results steaming from applied data processing methods.Using methods of theoretical modeling, idealization, and theoretical experiments, the authors consider the categories of legal personality, security, and tort of digital technologies and products, compare them with similar legal institutions, and determine possible options for integrating new legal categories into traditional rule of law on contracts, liability, and the protection of intellectual rights.As a result of the study, the authors have assembled their vision of those benchmarks, on which international strategies for regulating the digital economy should be built. The authors proceed from the fact that the adaptive capabilities of traditional law are very limited in relation to digital technologies; furthermore, in relation to many of them, qualitatively new legal models should be developed. The article presents the results of a review of the main legal parameters of digital technologies. Formulations of legal personality and protection are proposed, definitions of digital technology products in civil and copyright law are formulated.The conclusion reached concerns the inconsistency of approaches to assessing the legal nature of digital objects, and the insufficient consideration of the technical aspects of digital technologies, as well as the need to develop — at the international level — a unified legal strategy for civil and intellectual law regarding digital technologies. This study underlines, among the priority tasks and directions, the issues of legal personality of digital technologies, and the essential mechanisms for the protection of products using digital technologies. The conclusions formulated in the article have important practical and methodological significance, and can be taken into account when reforming the current legislation.
