Based on the methodology of chrono-discrete monogeographic comparative law, we identify the comparative potential of bailiffs’ legal status in the Russian Empire and the Russian Federation. Until recently, the legislation of the Russian Federation did not give a clear idea of bailiffs’ legal position in the civil service. We believe that, speaking about a bailiff’s legal status and comparing the regulatory framework that regulates it, it is necessary to determine what elements constitute a bailiff’s legal status; to compare comparable, conditionally comparable and incomparable elements of this status. At present, this issue is more definite and developed in comparison with the pre-revolutionary period. Comparison of specific elements of legal status in different historical periods may lead to the development of prac-tical recommendations for improving the current legislation governing the structure and activities of the institution of bailiffs. We designate six ele-ments of bailiffs’ legal status, which are fundamentally comparable in rela-tion to the Russian Empire and the Russian Federation. We also note the need to take into account the specific historical situation in the studied periods, the specifics of the political, economic, and social structure, and the peculiarities of legal awareness and mentality.

This study presents analyses of developing process of the regulatory framework and the results of the implementation of the organizational reform of the Russian Empire gendarmerie in the mid-1860s – early 1880s. The process of developing the regulatory framework for the reform was intense and produc-tive, which was not typical of Russian lawmaking. Analyzing the implementation of the reform, the authors examine two contradictory, but interrelated processes: the elimination of post-reform units and the process of formation of various types of units at the local, regional and central levels. A new type of local subdivisions is being formed “security de-partments”, subsequently playing an important role in the functioning of the institute. It is noted that on the territory of the national outskirts, the process of formation of local post-reform bodies had certain peculiarities. In general, the organizational reform was an adequate response to the challenges of the time, had a positive impact on the functioning of the institute and its results were sustainable.

The topic of the study is a component of modern scientific exploration that examines the role of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in building our multi-denominational society. In particular, the issue of determining the place and role of the Adventist Church in society and the state is important. However, today it is possible to unleash it only by summing up the accumulated experience in this field for the whole period of the history of Adventism in Ukraine. The problem of state-confessional relations is important, but it has not been given sufficient importance in terms of theoretical research, which sometimes leads to gross errors in the construction of these relations, which is not beneficial to society. Thus, it is interesting for us to experience the emergence of relations between the state and the Adventist faith in the Ukrainian lands that were part of the Russian Empire, since that is when the formation of the Adventist Church in the domestic territories began.
