The article defines the fundamental questions of legal nature and functional purpose of compensation for infringement of exclusive rights. The place of compensation is assessed both in the system of civil law remedies in general and in the system of remedies for infringement of exclusive rights in particular. The authors conclude that compensation is a complex (hybrid) form of liability in which the compensatory and punitive functions of civil liability are realized with the prevalence of the punitive one. On the basis of this conclusion, the criterion for determining the amount of compensation is proposed and justified. The legislative consolidation of this criterion and its further development in doctrine and judicial practice will contribute to the correct perception of compensation as a remedy and its application in accordance with its purpose.

Based on the results of the study of federal regulatory legal acts and judicial practice, the author of the article substantiates the conclusion about the advisability of applying the concept “prosecution” to the activities of the prosecutor participating in hearings in civil-law cases. At present, only criminal prosecution by the prosecutor is enshrined in Article 37 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. There are research works that justify administrative prosecution by the prosecutor. With regard to the prosecutor’s participation in the consideration of cases by courts outside of criminal proceedings, the issues of defining the role of the prosecutor as a subject of prosecution have not been raised in research. However, in connection with the enactment of laws on anti-corruption, on the reversion of civil servants’ property to the government, the issues of understanding the role of the prosecutor involved in civil proceedings acquire particular importance. In addition, civil liability has been established for offenses, e.g., in the form of liquidation of a legal entity by a court decision issued at the request of the prosecutor. The prosecutor is empowered to initiate the consideration of a case by the court upon the request to bring the perpetrator to civil liability, and the practice of considering such cases by the courts is being formed. In this regard, it is necessary to investigate the identified problem. The aim of this study was to analyze the approaches in the science of prosecutor’s activities, to form a conception of the prosecution by the prosecutor of persons who, according to the prosecutor, are guilty of committing an offense in the consideration of cases by courts in civil proceedings. As a result of the study, the features of the prosecutor’s participation in anti-corruption cases in civil proceedings that characterize the prosecutor’s activities as the prosecution of persons accused – by the prosecutor – of committing corruption offenses have been established. Attention has been drawn to other categories of civil cases in which the prosecutor also conducts prosecution. It has been emphasized that the prosecution is conducted only if the prosecutor applies to the court with a statement of claim, but not in the case of joining the case to give an opinion. The conclusion is made that there are theoretical and legal preconditions for separating the prosecution by the prosecutor in the civil procedural order. The established patterns and findings are aimed at ensuring the unity of approaches to defining the aims and objectives of the prosecutor’s activities in diverse directions, which contributes to increasing the efficiency of the prosecutor’s activities as a whole.

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. All mentioned above facts affect the development of infrastructure inUkraine. That is why the issues related to the legal regulation of air transportation activity, including civil responsibility of air carrier,are relevant.Having analyzed current doctrine of civil law, we can conclude that nowadays researchers are paying more attention to a deepunderstanding and study of the general provisions of civil liability of the air carrier in general and various aspects and problematic issuesof it in particular. Special attention is paid to responsibility for the delays in the departure of a passenger and violation of the estimateddelivery time, delays, loss or damage to baggage caused by improper performance of air carrier’s obligations under the contract.To our mind, one of the main problems of the air transportation disputes regarding indemnification refers to the legislationapplied. The fact is that courts tend to use legislation limiting legal opportunities for protection of rights and legally protected interests.The main approaches of judicial practice regarding certain problems of civil liability of an air carrier have been determined. Particularattention is paid to the issues of compensation for moral damage caused to a passenger as a consumer of transportation servicesas a result of improper performance by the air carrier of its obligations.It is important to stress that analysis of various court decisions gives ground to conclude that compensation for moral damagecaused to a passenger is an open question which should be answered. Nevertheless, court practice has been changed recently. Legalposition formed by the Supreme Court regarding the possibility of compensation for moral damage in case the absence of enshriningsuch a person’s right in special acts of civil law, in our opinion, is absolutely correct and progressive.

Currently, subjects of civil law are more likely to apply for a penalty in the form of a penalty, despite the possibility of collecting damages. This is due to the simplicity of calculating the penalty and the transparency of the application. From year to year there is a practical problem of calculating and proving the amount of losses in courts. An economically sound calculation is one of the ways to solve this problem. But the normative consolidation of such a calculation would allow the “weak side” not to turn to experts-appraisers every time, but to the courts to confidently make a decision. The relevance of this article lies in the study of the loss and identifying ways to solve the problem on the application of this measure in practice. The author studied the nature of the loss as a measure of civil liability, based on the study of judicial practice and various scientific opinions. The analysis carried out makes it possible to expand the range of scientific ideas about the loss and form new ways of solving the problems posed in practice.

Assessment and awarding of compensation to victims of injury and loss are among the main duties performed by courts in many different legal systems. In Western law, it constitutes a central purpose of tort law, which in itself is one of the fundamental branches of law. Did Chinese law have a specific approach to the question of compensation, which singularizes it from other legal systems? From the points of view both of statute law and judicial practice, my primary concern is to investigate whether compensation was granted to victims of injury or death under the Ming and Qing laws.

In this paper, the authors analyze the civil law liability of a mortgage debtor (mortgagor) in cases where the debtor breaches the obligation of treating the mortgaged real estate in compliance with the legal standard of acting with due diligence of “a good host” or “a good businessman,” and thus depreciates its value to the extent that jeopardizes the possibility of enforcing the claim. Given the accessory nature of mortgage which is aimed at securing the claim as the primary right, this form of civil liability and the corresponding rights of the mortgage creditor (mortgagee) are applicable before raising the issue of traditional civil law liability, which implies the maturity of the receivables and compensation for the damage sustained by the creditor. This form of civil liability may also be used preventively when there is a real risk of causing damage to the mortgagee. The relationship between civil law liability and the insurance of the mortgaged asset implies that they do not exclude but complement each other.

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.
