Contingent Fees

The present article is concerned with the analysis of the main problem in cases of contesting normative legal acts – the asymmetry between the opportunities of parties. As a consequence of that asymmetry, a rational citizen has no motivation to go to court and normative legal acts which contradict superior normative legal acts continue to exist in the system of actual law. The author adapts the American model of a “private attorney general” to Russian law. The aim of this model is to provide incentives for individuals to actively contest normative legal acts by means of covering judicial expenses with contingent fees. Incentives created by this law model are reviewed with the help of legislation analysis, economic analysis of law and game theory methodology. The author also considers the existing approaches to defining the legal nature of the term “contingent fees” in modern legislation. Based on that, possible ways of improving the legal system by the means of creating a legislative base for contingent fees are suggested.

In the article, the author carries out a historical analysis of the French law influence on the development of the Russian legal system. In this article, the author refers to the assessment of such influence at the level of the “spirit” and the “letter” of the law. In particular, “the spirit” of the French law penetrated into the Russian terrain due to close relationship maintained between France and Russia for a long period. One can observe direct dispersive influence of the French law on the evolution of the domestic system of justice at the level of the “letter” of the law in the process of drafting and implementation of the private and public law reforms. Summing up the results of the conducted research, the author, in general, positively evaluates the results of the open model of development of the Russian legal system, involving the use of foreign (particularly French) experience in the reconstruction of the national legal order, and concludes that in the context of the reforms, the Russian legislator should not maintain aloofness to global legal trends, but be part of the whole, without ceasing to be individual.

The Right

The paper provides analysis of the legal nature and the mechanism for exercise of the right of pre-emption (right of first refusal) in respect of execution of a contract taking as an example of right of first refusal to purchase a stake in a non-public corporation, and also examines the boundaries of parties’ autonomy and freedom of contract in this area. The author comes to the conclusion that the key elements of the construction of the right of pre-emption are the transformation powers that belong to the right holder. The author also demonstrates that, notwithstanding their dominance in Russian law, the views, which suggest that exercise of the right of pre-emption leads to “transfer of rights and obligations of a purchaser” (the translative theory), should be rejected. These views must be replaced with the constitutive theory, according to which exercise of the right of pre-emption results in a new contract between the right holder and the seller (as a general rule, on the same terms that were agreed between the seller and the purchaser).

Competitive Jurisdictions of Local Administration Authorities and Notaries for the Certification Purposes in Montenegro

Political Reason

With the adoption of the new Law on Certification of Signatures, Manuscripts and Transcripts the Montenegrin legislator did not take into account the fact of introducing the notary services into the legal system of Montenegro. Unlike most of the comparative legislations, certification of signatures, transcripts and manuscripts have not been transferred to the exclusive competence of notaries, but a competitive competence of notaries, local administration authorities and the courts in carrying out these assignments has been retained. Further retention of competitive jurisdiction in this matter is not justified any more. The analysis of this decision has shown that it leads to an unequal position, depending on the authority before which the certification is performed, whereas the obligations and professional competences of officials and notaries are different. Notarial certifications contribute to greater legal certainty and besides are more available to the citizens and not more expensive. Parallel jurisdiction is not a standard of notarial services in European continental law which has adopted the Latin model of notary as a independent profession having public authorities. This solution does not lead to building a legal certainty, protection of public interest and relieving the work of courts and administrative authorities, which has been the underlying legal political reason for introducing notariat.

Abstract The prosecutorial independence of the Attorney General (AG) is a firmly established constitutional convention in Canada, but it is also an evolving convention, subject to ongoing contestation and debate. This article is a contribution to that debate. It defends a normative constitutional framework wherein the AG’s authority to make final decisions in matters of criminal prosecution is balanced against a corresponding duty to consult with cabinet and the prime minister on the public interest implications of prosecutorial decisions when the circumstances warrant. Within this normative framework, respectful contestation and debate amongst ministers, the prime minister, and the AG in determining the public interest merits of prosecution is welcomed, even encouraged, and if conducted with the requisite integrity, objectivity, and transparency, it is regarded not as a threat but as a valuable check and balance on AG independence and an indispensable form of quality control on the exercise of prosecutorial discretion.

The article examines the doctrinal approaches to determining the legal nature of the terms of forced return and expulsion of foreigners and stateless persons by bodies of the border guard service. The analysis of domestic and foreign scientific views on time measurement in administrative proceedings has been carried out. The rules of the American and European system of termination of illegal stay of third-country nationals in connection with immigration detention, which is distinguished by its purpose and duration. The place of administrative deportation in the system of migration measures under Russian law is explained by the fact that it is an administrative punishment of foreign citizens and stateless persons who are subject to detention and are kept in specially designated premises. The peculiarities of temporal regulation and its significance in the application of coercive measures aimed at the return of a migrant in the context of the global spread of coronavirus infection are clarified. The allocation of material and procedural terms within the framework of which the state border guards exercise the powers of forced return and expulsion from the territory of Ukraine is reasoned. The focus on achieving the migration result reflects the material content of the terms allotted for departure and / or ensuring the departure of an illegal migrant from the country. The material expulsion terms are also associated with detention, which is applied according to the rules of administrative proceedings and is characterized by a significant duration, especially in a pandemic. The appointment of procedural terms is justified on the basis of the current norms of administrative-procedural legislation and is associated with the performance of the procedural actions necessary to be applied to the court and the phasing of administrative-jurisdictional proceedings. During the quarantine it is allowed to review the procedural terms in contrast to the material ones. Among the prospects of elaboration of the chosen topic, a comprehensive study of the normative regulation of time characteristics of immigration detention in accordance with the new administrative legislation and the return of foreigners (stateless persons) detected during their crossing the state border and entering the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine is proposed.

The Stability

Certainty in law is a category that is ambiguously perceived by the scientific legal community. We make an attempt to analyze the meaning and role of the category of certainty in the process of creating a stable legal system with historical continuity. On the example of the US and France legislation, we give polar examples of the implementation of certainty of lawprinciple. We conclude about the undoubted usefulness and necessity of preserving this principle in the Russian legal system. However, a study of the French experience of legal regulation has shown that the desire for certainty, achieved through an overly detailed regulation of public relations, only cre-ates additional problems of interpretation and law enforcement, strengthening legal nihilism and citizens' distrust of law. At the same time, the American model, implying some uncertainty of law, has shown its effectiveness in its historical example. The ambiguity and framework nature of the American Constitution and basic federal laws makes it possible to interpret and concretize their provisions in judicial precedents in different ways, depending on the era and socio-political situation, which contributes to the flexibility and stability of the US legal system. In conclusion, it is noted that domestic legislators need to strive for a gradual transition to the American model of implementing the principle of certainty of law, while providing for detailed regulation of public relations at the level of bylaws. Such an approach will preserve the historical continuity and existence of basic normative acts for several decades, preserve the stability and predictability of legal regulation.
