The article considers the problematic issues of bringing to administrative responsibility Ukrainiancustoms officials for violation of customs subjects’ information rights. The consequences ofnon-fulfilment and/or improper fulfilment of the Customs Code of Ukraine on advising on thepractical application of certain provisions of customs legislation, as well as on the improperproviding of information on customs rules to interested persons are analyzed. The grounds andpossibilities of bringing to administrative responsibility for violation of the procedure of customsconsulting and informing by customs authorities are compared. The legal provisions on suchliability are compared, depending on whose right (individuals or legal entities) to informationhas been violated by customs officials. The procedural features of bringing customs officers tosuch responsibility are analyzed, including the factors that complicate or make it impossible tobring them to justice. The author concludes that it is actually impossible to bring customs officialsto administrative responsibility for failure to provide customs advice, if it is initiated by a legal entity. These legal relations do not belong to the scope of the Law of Ukraine “On Citizens’Appeals”. It is emphasized the possibility of applying administrative penalties to customs officialsonly for violation of provisions of the Law of Ukraine “On Access to Public Information” inthe context of informing about customs rules. Based on the analysis of statistics, a conclusionabout the inefficiency of the entities authorized to draw up protocols on administrative offensesunder Article 212-3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Ukraine is made. The reasons ofthe inefficiency are the small number of such entities compared to the number of offenses, lackof prompt response for notification of violations, complicated procedure for such response, etc.The author proves the invalidity of some provisions of the Customs Code on the responsibility ofcustoms officials and suggests ways to solve this problem.

The article considers topical issues related to civil law protection and protection of the business reputation of a legal entity in Ukraine. The right to business reputation belongs to a special group of civil relations, which requires scientific study and analysis, given that there is still no legislative enshrinement of the concept of business reputation of a legal entity in the Civil Code of Ukraine. And in the time of constant socio-economic development, the relevance of the definition and legal regulation of civil relations in the field of business reputation of legal entities is significant and important because business reputation is a certain assessment of the legal entity, based on conclusions about business qualities and moral personality, which are closely related to the activities of the business entity and their compliance with the requirements of the law and the proper performance of contractual obligations to partners. The purpose of the article is to analyze, compare and study the foreign experience of the European Union to determine the optimal concept of business reputation, and provide suggestions on how to solve existing problems of protection of business reputation in violation of the Internet in our country. During the study of the issue, the basic concepts of business reputation contained in the regulations of Ukraine were analyzed. It is established that the civil legislation does not contain a definition of the term «business reputation of a legal entity», which in turn complicates the process of legal protection and protection of the business reputation of business entities. Equally important is the issue of protection against damage to business reputation on the Internet, which now affects almost every aspect of modern society. Protecting business reputation on the Internet is significantly complicated by the lag in the development of Ukrainian legislation from the realities of information technology development. If there are more or less clear ways to protect the infringed personal non-property right in traditional print media, television, then there is virtually no special regulation of relations and protection of the law on the Internet. In conclusion, we note that at the legislative level, namely in the Civil Code of Ukraine there is no legal regulation of protection and protection against violations of the business reputation of legal entities on the Internet. The problem of implementing the mechanism of protection of business reputation of a legal entity in the courts of Ukraine is relevant and unresolved and as a result requires further scientific study.

The article analyzes using the normative and systematic methods, as well as analysis and synthesis, the content of the statements of Constitution of the Kyrgyz Republic, Civil Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic «About Normative Legal Acts of the Kyrgyz Republic», the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic «On the Regulations of the Jogorku Kenesh of the Kyrgyz Republic» and the works of the legal scholars. It examined the provisions of laws adopted for general regulation and concludes they are serious problems, because of them there is a "blurring" of the contour of the legislation on legal entities in the article. The publication supports the opinion of the authors of the Concept for Development, according to which the regulation of the status of legal entities in the civil legal field can be characterized by a set of the laws and regula-tions in force in the Kyrgyz Republic, which do not always correspond to each other, as well as to the Civil Code. The low legal and technical level and ineffectiveness in practice are also shown by some adopted laws. It noted the Civil Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, adopted on May 8, 1996, created the new foundation for the regulation of legal entities, which was supplemented by many new laws over the next decades in the article. The authors come to the conclusion the fairly honest assessment can be applied to the established regulation – that with the main vector of development of the Concept of Civil Legislation in Kyrgyzstan, in general, there is an economic, social and well-grounded the logic and generally justifiable modern civil law in relation to legal entities. But at the same time, for many problems, correct solutions have not yet been found and no efficiency ratings have been given.

The article reviews the history of development of French laws on criminal liability of legal entities. The authors note that the institution of criminal liability of legal entities (collective criminal liability) dates back to the ancient times and has been forming in the French territory for a long time. Initially, it was established in the acts on collective liability residents of certain territories, in particular, in the laws of the Salian Franks. This institution was inherited from the Franks by the law of the medieval France, and got transferred from the medieval period to the French criminal law of the modern period. The article reviews the laws of King Louis XIV as an example of establishment of collective criminal liability: the Criminal Ordinance of 1670 and the Ordinances on Combating Vagrancy and Goods Smuggling of 1706 and 1711. For the first time ever, one can study the Russian translation of the collective criminal liability provisions of the said laws. The authors state that although the legal traditions of collective liability establishment were interrupted by the transformations caused by the French Revolution of 1789 to 1794, criminal liability of legal entities remained in Article 428 of the French Penal Code of 1810 as a remnant of the past and was abolished only as late as in 1957. The publication draws attention to the fact that the criminal law codification process was not finished in France, and some laws stipulating criminal liability of legal entities were in effect in addition to the French Penal Code of 1810: the Law on the Separation of Church and State of December 9, 1905; the Law of January 14, 1933; the Law on Maritime Trade of July 19, 1934; the Ordinance on Criminal Prosecution of the Press Institutions Cooperating with Enemies during World War II of May 5, 1945. The authors describe the role of the Nuremberg Trials and the documents of the Council of Europe in the establishment of the French laws on criminal liability of legal entities, in particular, Resolution (77) 28 On the Contribution of Criminal Law to the Protection of the Environment, Recommendation No. R (81) 12 On Economic Crime, the Recommendation No. R (82) 15 On the Role of Criminal Law in Consumer Protection and Recommendation No. (88) 18 of the Committee of Ministers to Member States Concerning Liability of Enterprises Having Legal Personality for Offences Committed in the Exercise of Their Activities. The authors conclude that the introduction of the institution of criminal liability of legal entities is based on objective conditions and that research of the history of establishment of the laws on collective liability is of great importance for understanding of the modern legal regulation of the issues of criminal liability of legal entities.

The relevance of the article is that society’s attitude to the bankruptcy procedure is ambiguous: ordinary citizens who have never been involved in bankruptcy proceedings often perceive it as a certain negative phenomenon that should be avoided and avoided. On the other hand, for many debtors, bankruptcy becomes the “lifeline” with which they can repay their claims to creditors and start financial life “from scratch”. At the same time, it should be noted that many debtors and creditors use the bankruptcy procedure not for the purposes provided by the legislator in the relevant legal norms, but to satisfy only their own interests, to the detriment of the interests of other parties to the case. In this regard, the study of the abuse of the right to initiate bankruptcy proceedings becomes relevant. The article is devoted to the study of abuse of the right to initiate bankruptcy proceedings. The purpose of the article is to study the abuse of the right to initiate bankruptcy proceedings and highlight the author’s vision of this issue. According to the results of the study, the author concludes that the application to the debtor of bankruptcy procedures can be both good for the debtor and to the detriment of the interests of his creditors. Entities that could potentially abuse the right to initiate bankruptcy proceedings are: creditors of the debtor – a legal entity, as well as debtors – legal entities, individuals and individuals – entrepreneurs. The fact of exemption of debtors from the court fee for filing an application to initiate bankruptcy proceedings is not only an unjustified luxury for our state, but also only contributes to the abuse of the right to initiate bankruptcy proceedings by unscrupulous debtors. In order to reduce the number of cases of abuse of the right to initiate bankruptcy proceedings, the author justifies the need to complicate the conditions for opening bankruptcy proceedings, for example, by returning the conditions provided by the Law of Ukraine “On Restoration of Debtor’s Solvency or Recognition of Debtor’s Bankruptcy”.

The legal regulation of relations with the participation of peasant (farmer) farms is complicated by the absence of a single legal act that would consistently cover all the rules governing the creation and activities of known types of peasant farms, which include: a sole peasant farm represented by an individual entrepreneur, a contractual association of citizens without the formation of a legal entity and peasant farms as the legal form of a legal entity. Individual judicial regulation, possessing a sign of feedback for legal regulation, can help increase its effectiveness. The purpose is to study the characteristics of individual judicial regulation of relations with the participation of peasant (farmer) enterprises on the example of individual judicial acts, as well as suggesting ways to resolve the problems identified. To achieve the stated goal, the following tasks were set: – designation of peasant farms confirmed by court decisions on disputes involving them; – the identification and study of the features of individual judicial regulation of relations with the participation of these types of peasant farms; – consideration of the possibility of application by courts of an analogy of the law in relation to peasant farms; – suggesting ways to address the identified problems of individual judicial regulation of relations with the participation of peasant farms. The methodological basis of the study consists in the use of general scientific (dialectics, analysis and synthesis) and private scientific research methods (formal legal, document analysis method). Brief conclusions of the study. 1. The marked differentiation of types of peasant farming makes it possible to specify the features of legal and individual regulation of each of them, and also makes it possible to exclude the accidental application of improper legislation in relations with the participation of peasant (farm) farms. 2. To determine the characteristics of individual types of farms, it is necessary to accurately determine the basis for the occurrence of each of them. 3. The application of the analogy of the law to peasant farms as partnerships or societies should be excluded, and the full identification of farms with these legal entities should not be allowed. 4. A special law that would determine the particular legal status of the peasant economy as a legal entity in accordance with clause 5 of article 86.1 of the Civil Code has not yet been adopted.

The relevance of the study of the problem of affiliation of legal entities is determined by the lack of a coherent legal mechanism to ensure the resolution of conflicts of interest between dependent persons. As of today, Russian legislation as a whole does not contain clear provisions regarding the concept of the affiliation of legal entities. Certain laws contain only separate independent concepts, for example, the concept of “affiliation” is used in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation; in the Federal Law «On Competition» - the concept of «group of persons»; in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation - the concept of «interdependent persons». Therefore, the study of the problem of settling relations with affiliates deserves special attention. The objectives of this study are the systematization and analytical study of the legal regulation of the institution of the affiliation of legal entities. In the course of the study, the authors used the following methods: analysis and synthesis, modeling, comparison, analysis of the regulatory framework, synthesis, formal legal method The article examines the issues of legal regulation of the affiliation of a legal entity. The definition of the concept of “affiliation” is given, criteria and signs of affiliation of a legal entity are defined, various scientific approaches to the definition of this category are given, problems of correlation with economic and other types of relations between affiliates are explored. In the course of the study, the authors came to the conclusion that the institution of affiliation in its present form undoubtedly needs to be reformed. It is necessary to develop a unified law, reflecting all the nuances of the concept of “affiliation” and the features of the transactions with affiliated persons.

The article examines the theoretical and practical issues of application of the Law of Ukraine «On Sanctions» of August 14, 2014 and analyzes the existing views on the legal nature of such «legal phenomenon» as sanctions - special economic, financial and other restrictive measures (sanctions) provided by this Law. The article specifies the main issues facing the researchers of the Institute of Sanctions. The purpose of the article is coverage of the state of legal regulation and legal nature of such a phenomenon as sanctions (economic, financial) in the right to Ukraine. In order to achieve this goal, the author used a set of general and special methods that are characteristic of legal science. The article covers the issue of Ukraine's sovereign right to protection, in particular through the application of economic and other restrictive measures (sanctions) «to protect national interests, national security, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, counter terrorist activity, as well as prevention of violations, restoration of violated rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens of Ukraine, society and the state». The range of subjects against which sanctions can be applied has been studied, namely: a) foreign states; b) foreign legal entities; c) legal entities under the control of a foreign legal entity or a non-resident individual, foreigners, stateless persons; d) entities engaged in terrorist activities. Sanctions are defined as legal measures to respond immediately to violations of various rights, from encroachment on state sovereignty to the commission of a crime of an international nature, which are temporary, which are applied primarily through coercive measures, which are implemented using constitutional, financial, administrative, economic, criminal procedural, executive, economic procedural and other branches of law. The issues of the grounds for application of sanctions, their types and criteria for their delimitation, the term of application of sanctions, as well as the range of authorized entities in the field of their application are covered. The main approaches of scholars to the characterization of sanctions as measures of influence are investigated. It is noted that sanctions are measures of influence different from measures of legal responsibility, which may have a "non-criminal" nature. It is stated that sanctions are measures of influence that are applied, albeit in parallel, but in a systematic connection with the criminal prosecution imposed by the state or executed by it as a subject of international cooperation in the fight against crime. Their application is, firstly, due to the decision at the international or regional level on the application of international economic (financial) sanctions, personal sanctions in the course of criminal prosecution for acts of an international crime. However, Ukraine is obliged to adhere to international standards of the legal mechanism for the application of sanctions at the domestic level, to improve the procedural principles of their application, appeal procedures and amendments to the decision. We consider the participation of the Commissioner for Human Rights in the process of reviewing the decision on the application of sanctions and appealing the decisions necessary. Amendments to the Law of Ukraine "On Sanctions" are proposed in order to establish among the necessary grounds for the application of sanctions to individuals the opening of criminal proceedings against them, and for legal entities - the opening of criminal proceedings against related persons, as well as amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, as it does not contain provisions on such preliminary measures (securing and stopping) as "sanctions". In addition, in general, the sanctions procedure requires greater transparency, and it is concluded that sanctions can be applied to Ukrainian citizens only if they are suspected of involvement in terrorist activities.
