The purpose of the study is to analyze the features of legal relations regulated by Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and Art. 227 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, as well as to identify and resolve the problems related to the proper legal definition of these relations. The main research methods are: structural-system, methods of logical analysis and synthesis, formallegal, comparative-legal, as well as collecting information through the study of scientific periodicals and materials of judicial practice on this issue. The article discusses in detail the features of the delimitation of relations arising in accordance with Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and Art. 227 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. The authors note that in the theory and practice of both criminal and civil law, one of the most controversial issues is the problem of differentiating a criminal offense under Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and acts that are not such (Article 227 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). So, to date, there is no consensus about the signs of differentiation of these compositions, and the criteria that have been developed at the present time are very vague and contradictory. Misinterpretation and application of norms when qualifying relations in accordance with Art. 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and Art. 227 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation does not allow citizens to protect effectively their rights and legitimate interests. Therefore, in order to prevent violations of civil rights, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive scientific study of the features enabling to differentiate the above mentioned relations. Considerable attention is paid to the problem of appropriation of the found someone else’s property, when this property has identifying features. The authors define the types of property in the possession of the owner or any other type of legal owner, and also disclose the main characteristics of the specified property. In addition, the article formulates the authors’ definitions of such concepts as «finding» and «appropriation» of what was found. Based on the analysis of judicial and investigative practice, the authors propose the following recommendations for changing the legislation and the practice of its application in order to resolve controversial issues arising from the qualification of crimes against property. First, it is necessary to make clarifications in the resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of December 27, 2002 No. 20 «On judicial practice in cases of theft, robbery and banditry» which property should be recognized as being in the possession of the owner or other legal owners and determine the characteristic features of such property ... Secondly, it is necessary to formulate and consolidate the legal definition of a find in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Thirdly, to return into Chapter 21 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation «Crime against property» the part «Appropriation of the found property».

The interest in digital development and the specifics of its legal regulation does not practically affect the problems of applying the provisions of Chapter 28 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and the qualifications of acts falling under the definition of «cybercrimes against property» and Art. 272 and Art. 273 in particular. Analyzing a judicial decision, the author on a practical example reveals the main qualification problems that currently exist in the judicial practice. The author states that the outdated and overly detailed definition «computer information» which is given in the note to Art. 272 of the Criminal Code, leads to the fact that the rules of law, in which this term is included, are applied erroneously. Considering how the perception of the meaning of dispositions of Art. 272, 273 and 159.6 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in cases of committing a crime in a virtual dimension, the author reveals the interdependence of the technical component of the subject of the crime and the place of its commission with the legal regulation of protected public relations and their external perception by the law enforcer. The article offers recommendations on the maximum elimination of possible errors in qualifications and shows on specific examples which particular signs and elements in the mechanism of a specific act affect the formation of erroneous law enforcement practice.

The paper is devoted to the consideration of current theoretical and practical issues of legal regulation of land and property relations in the territories of resorts in the Russian Federation. The relevance of the research topic is due to the imperfection of the current land and special legislation governing these relations, which leads to numerous violations of the legal regime of the land resorts, land and property rights of individuals and public interests, as evidenced by judicial practice. Based on retrospective analysis of land and environmental legislation of the Russian Federation, materials of law enforcement practice and scientific developments, the paper considers both theoretical problems of limiting the turnover of land within the territory of Russian resorts, and the problems of the application of legislation in practice, including in judicial practice.

It is concluded that the unjustified restriction of land turnover within the boundaries of the territories of resorts and the delimitation of state ownership of the relevant land, depending on the classification of the resort to Federal, regional and local significance, which prevents the development of these territories and violates the property rights of the local population and the owners of real estate.

The author justifies the conclusion about the need for development of a new scientific technique of definition of borders of the specified districts and zones and on its basis of revision of their existing borders that is necessary for establishment of reasonable restrictions of use and turnover of the parcels of land in borders of resorts is proved.

One of the topics discussed at scientific conferences and considered in the legal literature in the past few years is the selfemployment of citizens. This article analyzes the use of the concepts of “self-employment”, “self-employed citizens” in current legal acts and judicial practice of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, on the basis of which it is concluded that there is no legislative definition of these concepts and a unified approach to their application in judicial practice. As a result of consideration of the points of view existing in the theory of law regarding the concept of “self-employed citizens” and persons who can be attributed to them, the opinion was developed that “self-employed citizens” is not a legal concept, but a general (collective) concept that denotes individuals independently providing themselves with work. An overview of the provisions of civil and tax legislation, as well as the legislation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, regulating the activities of self-employed citizens is presented. Particular attention is paid to the experiment carried out in a number of constituent entities of the Russian Federation to establish a special tax regime “Tax on professional income”
