The legal responsibility of a notary is in its essence an important element of the legal regulation of public relations in the field of notarial activities, which is manifested in the purposeful influence of the state on the behavior of notaries through legal means. The purpose of this article is to formulate the concept and outline the characteristics of the main types of legal liability of a private notary. The legal liability of private notaries is proposed to be understood as a set of legal coercive restrictions provided by law and the suffering of subjects of private notarial activity of personal, organizational and property nature for the committed offense. At the same time, it is emphasized that the legal responsibility of a notary as a structural element of his legal status consists not only in the application of appropriate coercive measures against him for an offense (retrospective aspect), but also in his awareness of his responsibility for proper performance (prospective aspect). It is noted that the components of the system of legal liability of a private notary are its types, namely: civil (professional), criminal, administrative and disciplinary. It is emphasized that the institution of legal liability of private notaries should be considered not only as a guarantee of lawful and conscientious performance of their duties, a means of protecting the legitimate interests of the state and citizens related to the provision of notarial services, but also as a regime of private notaries. procedural relations arising from the application of coercive measures by the state to them. It is established that the legal responsibility of a private notary is complex, and provides for the imposition on him not only the actual legal responsibility, but also moral responsibility for actions before the state and society. The limits of legal liability of private notaries depend on the type of such liability. The administrative nature of the notary’s activity and his performance of actions on behalf of the state allows to draw a conclusion about the tortious nature of the notary’s liability for violation of the established procedure for performing notarial acts.

This article examines the issues of differentiation of legislative and subordinate regulation of public relations. It is noted that in the process of law-making activities, including the legislative process, practical questions often arise about the competence of various state bodies to establish various legal norms and rules. These issues are related to the need to establish a clear legal meaning of the constitutional norms devoted to the definition of the subject of regulation of laws. In particular, there is a need to clarify the provisions of paragraph 3 of Article 61 of the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan in terms of the concepts "the most important public relations", "all other relations", "subsidiary legislation", as well as to establish the relationship between these concepts. Interpretation is also required by the provisions of p. 4 of Article 61 of the Constitution in terms of clarifying the question of whether the conclusion follows from mentioned provisions that all possible social relations in the Republic of Kazakhstan are subject to legal regulation, including those that are subject to other social and technical regulators (morality, national, business and professional traditions and customs, religion, standards, technical regulations, etc.). Answering the questions raised, the author emphasizes that the law and bylaws, as a rule, constitute a single system of legislation, performing the functions of primary and secondary acts. However, the secondary nature of subsidiary legislation does not mean that they regulate "unimportant" public relations. The law is essentially aimed at regulating all important social relations.

The subject of this research is certain theoretical aspects of public legal responsibility that may emerge in the spheres and situations of the use of artificial intelligence and robotic autonomous systems takes place. Special attention is given to interpretation of public legal responsibility as a legal category, and its role within the system of legal regulation of public relations in the country. The article explores the basic aspects of public responsibility in the sphere of potential use of the systems equipped with technological solutions based on artificial intelligence. The author describes the possible risks determined by the development and implementation of such technologies in accordance with trends of scientific and technological progress. The conclusion is made that currently in the Russian Federation does not have a liability system applicable particularly to damage or losses resulting from the use of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence. However, the existing liability regime at least ensures the basic protection for the victims suffered from the use of artificial intelligence technologies. However, the peculiar characteristics of these technologies and complexity of their application may hinder payment of compensations for inflicted harm in all cases when it seems justified, and not ensure fair and effective allocation of responsibility in a number of cases, including the violation of non-property rights of citizens.

The subject of this research is the system of legal norms of the Russian Federation that regulates public relations within the process of restriction of the constitutionally recognized information rights and liberties of a human and citizen, as well as establishment of the boundaries of their realization in the current conditions of development of the information society and digitalization. The goal of this work is to develop theoretical foundations for information law through demarcation of boundaries and restrictions of the information rights and liberties, which would also contribute to improvement of information legislation and the practice of its application. The scientific novelty of research is reflected in the acquisition of scientific knowledge required for development of legal regulation of the information sphere in the conditions of digitalization, among which are the original definition of the concepts “boundaries of exercising rights in the information sphere” and “restrictions of information rights and liberties”, obtained based on the conducted analysis of the forming public relations within information sphere and their legal regulation. The following conclusions were made: 1) there is absence of research on the issues of boundaries of rights, including boundaries in information law; 2) there is a need for determination of boundaries of exercising right in the information sphere and restriction of information rights and liberties in implementation of legal regulation, as well as consideration of the legal nature of technical norms in their inclusion into a normative legal act.

Problem setting. The implementation of the norms of a particular branch of law can occur only in the relations that constitute its subject, thus transforming these relations into legal relations. Labor law is no exception. In this regard, the rules on guarantees must be considered in terms of implementation in relations that are part of the subject of labor law. Note that the relations that are the subject of labor law are governed by special methods that form a single method of this branch of law. This, in turn, gives rise to the assertion that an additional circumstance that allows to include the relations included in the subject of labor law to an independent form, is the possibility of applying to these relations methods of legal regulation characteristic of the method of this branch of law. This approach should be used in relation to the provision of guarantees and compensation, the inclusion of which in the subject of labor law as a separate type is not excluded. To do this, we highlight the main methods of legal regulation proposed by the science of labor law, which characterize the method of this branch of law. Analysis of recent research. The works of many labor scientists, in particular: N. Bobrova, M. Vitruk, D. Karpenko, T. Markina, P. Nedbayl, K. Urzhinsky, are devoted to the study of guarantees in labor law. V. Skobelkin, O. Smirnov, N. Stolyar, L. Surovskaya, O. Yaroshenko and others. Target of research is to consider the relationship between the methods of legal regulation of the method of legal law for the provision of guarantees and compensation. Article’s main body. The article covers the issues of legal regulation of labor relations for the implementation of legal guarantees. The peculiarities of the method of legal regulation are described. It is indicated how the methods of legal regulation of the method of labor law relate to the relationship of providing guarantees and compensations. It is concluded that the regulation of relations on the provision of guarantees and indemnities takes place using special methods that are not used in relations that are the subject of labor law. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Thus, the characteristics of the method of labor law, in terms of the possibility of applying its methods to the relationship of guarantees and compensation allows us to draw the following conclusions: the method of labor law is a special combination of ways to influence the rules of law on public relations. The regulation of relations for the provision of guarantees and compensation is using methods that determine the method of labor law. At the same time, the regulation of relations on the provision of guarantees and indemnities also takes place using special methods that are not used in relations that are the subject of labor law. This fact determines the specifics of their intended purpose and indicates the presence in the system of labor law of an independent legal institution – the institution of guarantees and compensations.

Considering that the expansion of legal regulation and multiplication of legal norms in the legal order of the Republic of Serbia have engendered over two hundred (substantive and procedural) legislative acts referring to the application of the General Administrative Procedure Act (GAPA), there is no general law in the Serbian legal order that could be compared to the GAPA in terms of correlation with other laws. Yet, in our judicature and legal science, there are no clear criteria for regulating the relationship between the GAPA and other (subject-specific) legislative acts referring to the application of the GAPA provisions. The relationship between the GAPA and subject-specific legislative acts may be based on the regime of legal subordination and the regime of legal referral. It further leads to the distinction between subsidiary and analoguous application of the general law, which is the author's original standpoint. Analogous application entails the application of the general law in accordance with the nature of the relationship between the legal procedure rules and the subject matter of legal regulation, whereas subsidiary application entails the application of the general law as a whole in all matters which are not regulated by a subject-specific law. In view of the obligation to harmonize subject-specific legislative acts with the GAPA, the author is of the opinion that such harmonization cannot be put into effect without amending the GAPA. Therefore, the GAPA provisions shall: (1) embody the distinction between subsidiary and analogous application of the GAPA, and (2) strengthen the direct application of the GAPA in administrative matters.

The effectiveness of legal influence on relations in modern society is determined along with other factors and the perfection of legal terminology used in regulations. The need to improve the quality of legal activity in Ukraine necessitates the study of the regulatory possibilities of legal terms, among which a special place is occupied by formally indefinite terms that cause formal uncertainty of legal norms. The use of formally indefinite terms in legal norms and the issue of legal influence in the domestic literature are not specifically considered, respectively, need further study to formulate certain scientific generalizations and practical recommendations that can be used to improve the legal regulation of public relations in Ukraine. The author proposes to consider the valuation concepts as enshrined in the legal norm abstract characteristics of the social significance of real or potential facts. It must be specified during its application or implementation. This ensures the legal response of the state to all individualized facts, which are characterized by the significance fixed in the legal norm. In addition, the specific features of intermediate concepts that distinguish them from the evaluative and formally defined are highlighted. Analyzing them, the author concludes that the categories of "legal regulation" and "legal influence" are correlated as general and specific, and the boundary separating them is quite conditional. Noting the inseparability of legal influence and legal regulation, the author points out that at the same time does not deprive them of differences. The subject of legal regulation is somewhat narrower than the subject of legal influence. The latter includes such economic, political and social relations, which are not regulated by law, but to which they in one way or another extend their influence. If legal regulation, as a special legal influence, in any case is associated with the establishment of specific rights and obligations of subjects, with direct instructions about what is necessary and possible, the legal influence is not always. The relationship, unity and separation of legal influence and legal regulation suggest the need for a generalized approach to these legal phenomena. This position is confirmed by the author, focusing on formally vague norms, in particular those that contain intermediate concepts. Such concepts have a special ability to act as a means of legal influence, both related and unrelated to legal regulation. This ability stems from the properties of intermediate concepts, primarily from the ability to be a means and source (and this is the influence) of legal regulation. Summing up, the author notes that one of the means of legal influence, which accompanies legal regulation and is not directly related to it, are formally vague, in particular, intermediate (semi-valued) concepts. The study of this category of legal terms, their place and role in legal techniques, the ability to regulate public relations and influence them is one of the ways to determine ways to improve the legal regulation of social relations in the modern state.

The subject of the article concerns the assessment of the effectiveness of law.       The purpose of the article is to identify indicators that reflect the effectiveness of the law.The methodology of the research includes complex analysis of scientific legal literature, synthesis of ideas as well as formal-legal method of interpretation of legal acts.The main results and scope of their application. More than 2500 existing normative legal acts of the Russian Federation contain various requirements for improving the efficiency of legal regulation. The complexity of the study is caused by the lack of a common understanding of the phenomenon. The effectiveness of the law is often understood by many authors as the ability to influence public relations in a certain direction useful for society; or as the ability to influence positively on social relations at the lowest cost; or as fundamental feasibility, predetermined by common knowledge, clarity and consistency of legal norms; the correspondence between the objectives of the legislator and development of social relations.           An indicator of the effectiveness of legislation is a criterion for determining the degree of achievement of the goals and objectives of legal regulation. The indicators that are offered by scientists for assessment the effectiveness of law, has logical defects. These indicators are^ frequency of application of laws that are estimated for the effectiveness (I. Samoshchenko, V. I. Nikitinsky, A. B. Vengerov); measure of conflict regulated by this norm of social relations (V. Lapaeva); proportional ratio of the number of facts of lawful behavior to the number of cases of illegal behavior (T. Geiger and E. Hirsch), etc.Conclusions. The following formula can be proposed to determine the effectiveness of the law: effectiveness = LR2–LR1, where: LR1 - initial legal relations, and LR2 – the state of legal relations on the current date. Effectiveness can be measured in this formula in a number of violations and satisfied claims and complaints. There is no direct connection with the goal of legal regulation in this formula but it is possible, to trace the dynamics of the effectiveness of law with this formula by using statistics data.
