The leading method was the deductive. The method of systems analysis, the historical method, the method of induction, etc. were used. The study concludes that today, an increase in transport significantly increases the prevalence and danger of crimes that encroach on the functioning of transport that is safe for people and society.

The article analyzes the problems in the direction of sentenced to arrest in the Republic of Belarus to the place of punishment. Based on the study of penal legislation it is concluded that there is no normative regulation of the issues of sending convicts to lockup houses, the concept of evading serving a sentence of arrest as well as the procedure and conditions for criminal prosecution under Art. 414 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus. This causes problems associated with the violation of the principle of the inevitability of criminal liability and the practice of applying this type of punishment, entailing among other things the growth of recidivism up to grave and especially grave crimes, encroaching on human life and health. Based on a comparative analysis of the legislation of the Republic of Belarus and the Russian Federation, which regulates the execution and serving of punishment in the form of arrest, the similarity of legal regulation of these public relations and problems in the law enforcement practice of both countries is noted. The conclusion is drawn about the need to amend the Penal Code of the Republic of Belarus in order to eliminate conflicts related to the execution of the sentence of arrest as well as conduct a comprehensive study of the execution of the sentence of arrest in the Russian Federation.

A prerequisite for this research is a high public hazard of violent crimes committed against persons executing justice or preliminary investigation since this shakes the foundation of justice and buttress of state power in general. This suggests the need to research the prevention of such crimes using criminal legal methods. The primary goal of the research lies in the analysis of the modern condition and development of relevant proposals to improve the current criminal law of the Russian Federation in terms of regulation of criminal liability for the discussed criminal offenses, which will have a positive effect on their prevention. Research methods: dialectical method of cognition, as well general scientific (analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, logical, systemic-structural methods) and particular methods of cognition (scientifically statistical, formally legal). The novelty is related to an integrated approach to research the problem of prevention of the discussed offenses and proposals developed on this basis to improve the Russian Federation criminal law, which will increase efficiency in the prevention of these offenses. Results: efficiency of preventing such offenses greatly depends on clear legal regulation of legal norms suggesting criminal liability for committing them. There is a pressing need to complement the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation with new wordings of these elements of crimes and changes that would allow formulating a definitive norm clearly defining the scope of persons affected and adopting a Plenum Decree at this stage for this category of criminal cases, which would clarify the implementation of evaluative categories of the discussed elements of crimes.

The authors study the controversial issues of termination of a criminal case (criminal prosecution) on the condition of voluntary compensation for the damage caused by the crime by the suspect (accused) during the preliminary investigation. The thesis is proved that in Russian criminal proceedings the procedure for voluntary compensation for damage caused by a crime is quite clearly regulated, and if the suspect (accused) voluntarily compensated for the property damage caused, then their actions will be evaluated within the current legal framework, when the fact of compensation for damage creates grounds for exemption from criminal liability and termination of the criminal case (criminal prosecution) in accordance with Articles 75, 76, 761, 762 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, Articles 25, 251, 28, 281 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

The priority task of any democratic state is safeguarding the interests of children, including the right of every child to live in a family. Adoption of orphans or children deprived of parental care is becoming more and more common in present-day Russia, which makes the issue of legal regulation highly relevant. The article examines the problems of implementing a complex legal mechanism that regulates the protection of the confidentiality of adoption and imposes criminal liability for violating it. It should be acknowledged that there are diverse approaches to the problem of criminal law protection of the confidentiality of adoption. The authors analyze the views of different scholars on this problem. They present a critical analysis of the viewpoint that the norm imposing liability for such a violation should be abolished and prove the social importance of preserving the confidentiality. The authors also discuss the problem areas of criminal law characteristics of crimes connected with violating the confidentiality of adoption and conduct a comprehensive research of this issue. The analysis of current legislation shows that it includes a sufficient number of norms safeguarding the confidentiality of adoption. At the same time, this legal institute includes some specific norms that need improvement, require editing or amending, which, according to the authors, stops them from performing their preventive functions. The article contains concrete recommendations on improving current Russian legislation in this sphere, in particular, on improving the clauses of Art. 155 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which establishes criminal liability in those cases where the confidentiality of adoption is violated. Besides, the authors examine the controversial issue of limiting the confidentiality of adoption because they believe that it is not lawful to deny a person who has reached majority the right guaranteed by the Constitution of the RF to learn information concerning him/herself, in this case, the right to know who their parents are. They suggest amending Art. 139 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation, which will make it possible to fully guarantee the constitutional rights of citizens.

The publication analyzes the policy in the field of legal liability for tax crimes in the Russian Federation and the States with which the Russian Federation has stable economic ties - Germany, Spain, France, China, the States of the Eurasian economic Union and the Commonwealth of independent States. The study suggests that the policy of States that are economic partners of the Russian Federation demonstrates a more severe approach to non-fulfillment of tax obligations. As a result of the study of foreign legislation, no States have been identified that have more lenient sanctions for tax crimes. Legal regulation of legal liability for violation of tax legislation in comparison with Russian legislation is characterized by long periods of limitation for criminal liability. Criminal law prohibitions do not contain an imperative requirement to exempt a defaulter from criminal prosecution in the event of payment of arrears and other compensation accruals (with the exception of the republics of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan). In contrast to the Russian Federation, most countries criminalize actions related to ignoring the obligation to maintain accounting records, hiding or destroying accounting documents (China, France, Spain, etc.). It is concluded that the Russian Federation is a less protected tax jurisdiction in comparison with the States with which it has economic ties. The existing imbalance of liability for violations of tax and fee legislation creates prerequisites for the use of Russian tax jurisdiction in unfair tax strategies. When determining the vector of Russian state policy in the sphere of liability for non-fulfillment of tax obligations, it is not advisable to ignore this significant circumstance.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the legal measures to combat discrimination in the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Moldova. Such a problem as regulation in the criminal law of antidiscrimination is active a large scale. In the Russian criminal legislation important legal guarantee the constitutional principle of equal rights and antidiscrimination is article 136 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Violation of equality of rights and freedoms of man and citizen). Meantime, as illustration the analysis of international antidiscrimination standards and trends to expand of these prescriptions in the legislation of CIS states, this criminal norm is far from perfect. The liability for discrimination can not be treated in direction with the commission of using official position. In our view, preventive legal prohibition in the article 136 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation will be significantly enhanced if to ask: 1) the return of criminal liability for discrimination of any individuals; 2) criminalization new aggravating circumstances.

The authors question the effectiveness of the current mechanism for holding accountable persons who evade paying alimony, as well as the expediency of introducing Article 157 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation of the institute of administrative prejudice, which gave rise to a number of legal conflicts. The problem of non-payment of alimony is of an acute social nature, and the methods of its solution must take into account, first of all, the interests of the persons for whose maintenance the necessary funds must be received. However, criminal prosecution is far from always able to solve the main problem - to ensure payment discipline of persons who are responsible for paying funds for the maintenance of children. It is proposed to abandon the administrative prejudice, and as a constitutive element of the corpus delicti, to provide for the systematic nature of the evasion of payment of funds for the maintenance of children. In addition, it is advisable to provide for the possibility of relieving the debtor from criminal liability if the maintenance obligation is paid off in full.

Article is devoted to the changes made to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation by the Federal law of the Russian Federation of April 1, 2019 № 46-FZ on toughening of punishment for establishing a criminal organization or participation in it. Innovations concerned all parts of article 210, in particular criminal liability amplified (generally a penalty) and part 11 of article 210 appeared. Besides, the law entered new article 210.1 of the «Occupation of the highest situation in criminal hierarchy». Having analyzed statistics, only one fact of involvement of such person to criminal liability for establishing a criminal organization is elicited. Him was «thief in law» who carried out organizational and administrative functions concerning criminal community and its participants. One example of judicial practice by part 4 of article 210 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation «the person taking the highest position in criminal hierarchy», proves existence of difficulties at procedural proof. However these problems will not arise in the situation provided by article 210.1 as to prove that such person makes act it is not necessary. There is enough of fact that this person holds the highest position in criminal hierarchy. Meanwhile, noted edition of the law contradicts the theory of criminal law, regarding criminal prosecution only for criminal action.
