The subject of research in this paper is the administrative-procedural form and stages of the administrative process. The purpose of the study is to analyze the essential characteristics of the administrative-procedural form and stages. It is stated that the evolution of the administrative process and administrative-procedural legal relations entailed changes in the administrative-procedural form, which were influenced by changes in the political system and the system of public administration in the Russian Federation. It is concluded that the improvement of the administrative process and its form ensures compliance with both the interests of the state and society, as well as the rights and legitimate interests of citizens. Attention is drawn to the fact that one of the characteristic features of administrative-procedural legal relations that distinguish it from other types of procedural legal relations – arbitration, civil, criminal, constitutional, is the administrative-procedural form, which is characterized by out-of-court, pre-trial and judicial procedures of proceedings in an administrative case, due to the specifics and features of its subject. The author notes that the administrative-procedural form is an external expression of administrative-procedural activity, and the stages are its internal content. At the same time, the stages of the administrative process are separate, but interrelated stages consisting of administrative procedural actions united by common tasks and intermediate and final administrative procedural decisions, procedural deadlines. Attention is drawn to a certain specificity of the stages of the administrative process, which consists in the fact that they cannot be clearly divided into judicial and pre-trial stages, as it is in the criminal process. The system of stages of the administrative process should be the same for all types of administrative proceedings, since this follows from the principle of self-similarity, when the particular comes from the general and corresponds to it. To determine the place of administrative judicial procedure in the administrative process, it is necessary to understand that the court, as a subject of administrative procedural legal relations, can enter into the process at different stages, and it is not the only subject of administrative procedural relations that makes legally significant procedural decisions. The methodological basis of the article is dialectical, formal-logical methods, formal-legal method and method of interpretation of law.

The paper analyzes the normative regulation of the procedural administrative decision institute, which was introduced into the Serbian administrative process as a novelty by the General Administrative Procedure Act (GAPA) in 2016. The paper aims to addresses three research questions: to determine the legislator's goal in regulating this insitute, to identify in which situations such a decision has to be made, and to establish how effective that type of decision is. At the beginning of the paper, the author focuses on the concept of effectiveness, including different, mutually opposed, approaches to defining that notion. The author points out the conceptual misunderstanding between efficiency and effectiveness, and their unjustified equalization. The main goal of introducing the institute of procedural administrative decision is the aspiration for greater protection of parties' procedural rights. The analysis of the text of the General Administrative Procedure Act has yielded seventeen basic types of procedural administrative decisions: a decision on rejecting the party's request, a decision not to allow alteration of the party's request, a decision on suspending the procedure, a decision on termination of the procedure, a decision on imposing a fine, decision on request, a decision on execution, a decision on securing the execution, a decision on appointing a temporary representative, a decision on denying representation to a quack lawyer for unlicenced practice of law, a decision on proposal for restitution, a decision on bearing preliminary procedure costs, a decision on exemption from procedure costs, a decision on payment of costs resulting from the absence or unjustified denial of testimony, a decision on compensation for damage to the holder, a decision on the proposal for providing evidence, and a decision on ordering an interim measure. The author concludes that the institute of procedural administrative decision can negatively affect the effectiveness of administrative proceedings due to the possibility of its unnecessary extension.

The article analyzes the range of participants in administrative proceedings, depending on which of the two groups of proceedings they belong to: conflict or non-conflict. It is noted that for the terminological designation of participants in non-conflict proceedings, special attention should be paid to the procedural position they perform in administrative proceedings. The article defines two groups of participants in non-conflict proceedings, the first of which consists of state executive bodies and local governments and their officials who consider and resolve administrative cases. The second group of participants in non-conflict proceedings consists of individuals and legal entities, as well as, under certain conditions, associations of citizens without the status of a legal entity, who protect personal rights and legitimate interests in the administrative process. The laws establishing the procedure for conducting administrative proceedings do not contain standard procedural terms for designating individuals and legal entities as participants in administrative proceedings in Ukraine. It is proposed to analyze the subjects of conflict proceedings depending on the type of proceedings in which they participate, that is, focusing on such types of administrative proceedings as: administrative-tort proceedings, disciplinary proceedings, proceedings on complaints of citizens, administrative proceedings by way of administrative proceedings. The authors concluded that system of subjects of conflict and non-conflict proceedings is complex and branched, what affects the flexibility of the mechanism of protection of the rights and legitimate interests of citizens as a whole today. It is considered to reform the system of conflict proceedings and to minimize of authorized bodies with broad competence. Also, the need for a unified approach to the terminological definition of participants in non-conflict proceedings is a significant problem in law enforcement that needs to be addressed urgently.

The purpose of this article is to determine the nature and content of administrative and procedural guarantees. In this regard, it is necessary to solve the following tasks: To clarify the definition of administrative and procedural guarantees, to characterize their types, to reveal the features of administrative and procedural guarantees, and to determine the place of this legal phenomenon in the general legal system. Issues related to theoretical and legal interpretation, legislative definition and direct implementation of administrative and procedural guarantees are updated and considered. The influence of administrative-procedural guarantees on the level of development of the domestic legal system is analyzed. Attention is drawn to the fact that the quality of proper functioning of administrative-procedural guarantees directly depends on the development of state institutions of a particular country, as well as on the level of perfection and efficiency of the entire state-power mechanism, i.e. the state system. Given that the essence of modern administrative and procedural guarantees provides for the proper consolidation of rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of individuals, it is justified that the key role in these processes will always play the level of legal awareness, along with the level of transparency and timeliness. The author’s definitions of the terms “administrative-procedural guarantees”, “protection of legal guarantees of citizens” and “legal awareness of the population” are given. Some of the characteristic features of foreign models of administrative and legal regulation are proposed for implementation.

The article deals with the issues of legal regulation of procedural relations, as well as the delimitation of the administrative process from civil-procedural activity on the subjects of consideration of labor disputes. It is emphasized that the problem of distinguishing material public law from private is always an important problem. Not all labor relations fall under the signs of private law, in which the rights, freedoms and interests of individuals are protected, but most of them are regulated by labor legislation, which is based on the legislation regulating private relations. However, there are relations that arise between state bodies and citizens governed by labor law, but their regulation falls within the sphere of public law. Disputes arising from these legal relationships are resolved by the administrative court. Protection of certain labor relations is also carried out with the application of administrative liability, cases concerning this are considered by a court of general jurisdiction. The author notes that the legislator provided for the protection of the rights and legitimate interests of workers by the competent authorities to apply measures of administrative coercion. After all, being the main method of administrative activity, persuasion is not always a very effective measure to influence the behavior of those who commit illegal acts. In this regard, the state, protecting the inviolability of the regulated labor relations of the person, his right to work and adequate remuneration, the legitimate interests of citizens, their teams, trade unions, the rights and responsibilities of owners of enterprises, institutions and organizations, authorizes employees authorities to apply coercion to those who are not influenced by persuasion and public influence. Administrative coercion is applied on the basis of persuasion, the means of influence of which have already been exhausted. One of the types of measures of administrative coercion used in the consideration of labor disputes in order to protect labor relations is administrative liability. Cases of this jurisdiction are considered by a court of general jurisdiction. The author defines the criteria for distinguishing between labor disputes, which belong to the competence of the administrative court (considered in administrative proceedings and regulated by the Code of Administrative Procedure of Ukraine) and general jurisdiction (considered in civil proceedings and regulated by the Labor Code).
