The need for scientific research of the grounds for the use of coercion by law enforcement authorities, and especially its component such as physical coercion, is extremely important, as it is possible only if there are sufficient conditions provided by law. The author analyzes the legal and factual grounds for the use of coercion by law enforcement authorities in the field of causal interdependence and interdependence. Police coercive measures, measures to maintain the regime in places of imprisonment and pre-trial detention are revealed. They are applied only in cases when all other forms of pre-trial detention of offenders have been used and have not ensured the fulfillment of duties imposed on law enforcement officers. Emphasis is placed on the fact that each specific case of the use of coercion must have a comprehensive basis (legal and factual). The first component of this set is a dangerous encroachment (act, process, event of objective reality) that threatens harm, or that already harms law enforcement interests (legal basis). The second component is the situation that indicates the impossibility of eliminating, preventing or stopping the specified encroachment in other ways and indicates the need (compulsion) and justification for the use of coercion (factual basis). The author pays special attention to the analysis of Ukrainian legislation in order to study the legal grounds for the use of coercive measures by various law enforcement authorities. These legal relations are regulated by the norms of administrative, criminal procedure and correctional labor law. They clearly outline the desire of the legislator to limit the infliction of harm only to the minimum that is really necessary and sufficient to achieve the socially useful goals provided by law. Causing damage that exceeds this minimum is considered illegal.

The issue of coercion by law enforcement agencies significantly affects the rights and interests of an individual as a person, despite the fact that this person is most often the offender. At the same time, both international law and the national law of any state recognize the possibility of applying coercive measures to ensure order and security. Thus, the principle of proportionality requires the legal definition of the authority powers to interfere in the rights, freedoms and interests of the objects of influence and the proportionate exercise of these powers depending on the specific circumstances of the case, which would ensure the necessary balance between government, community, legal entities and individual citizens. The article analyzes the national legislation that is directly related to the legal framework and legal grounds for the use of coercion by law enforcement agencies of Ukraine. It also covers international legal acts ratified in the prescribed order, and international documents on diplomatic relations and immunities of diplomatic agents with regard to respect for human rights in the use of coercion by the relevant authorities: whether physical influence (force), or special means, or, moreover, firearms, which is most often related to the harming a citizen. Special attention is paid to the peculiarities of departmental regulation of this issue. It is noted that the legal grounds for the application of coercive measures regulated at the level of laws are not a departmental prerogative power of any ministry or other executive body. In addition to the above, it is emphasized that law enforcement officers must take into account the norms and principles of professional conduct in the performance of law enforcement functions in their activities. Thus, the legal grounds for the use of coercion by law enforcement agencies are widespread in regulations of various legal force. At the same time, the grounds and conditions for the application of coercive measures are regulated only by acts issued by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, namely, by laws

The issue of regulatory and legal support for the use of coercion by authorized entities, as well as the grounds for the application of coercive measures by such bodies have been studied. According to the results of the study, it is concluded that the legal regulation of law enforcement agencies to apply coercive measures is carried out by a certain system of legislation, consisting of a large number of regulations that differ from each other in many ways and is a hierarchical system based primarily on the Constitution of Ukraine. At the same time, the legal grounds for the use of coercion by law enforcement officers are enshrined in the hypotheses of the norms of only certain regulations - the Laws of Ukraine "On the National Police", "On the National Guard", "On Pre-trial Detention", "On the Military Law Enforcement Service in Armed Forces of Ukraine ”as well as the Criminal Executive Code of Ukraine. The rest of the laws, although giving law enforcement officers the right to apply force, contain blanket rules that refer to the above three regulations to clarify the legal basis for their application, mainly to the Law on the National Police. It is also determined that the limits of harm caused by a law enforcement officer during the appli-cation of coercive measures must be commensurate with two factors: first, with the potential for danger to law enforcement interests (legal basis), and secondly, with the situation in which turned out to be the subject of coercion during the elimination of the specified non-security (factual basis). These two factors, combined, are nothing more than a complex basis of harm to the offender. And the actions of law enforcement officers will only be morally justified and permitted by law if the damage they caused is commensurate with both factors of the cause that caused it, ie the reason for the damage. The article expresses the opinion that the researched issues reflect the opposition of public and private interest, which is solved using the universal principle of proportionality. It is in this way that the legal regulation is carried out, where the legislator approaches the infliction of harm as a result of the use of force in a differentiated manner.

The purpose of the article is to determine the features and legal grounds for the use of tools of operational and search activities in the pre-trial investigation. Subject of research: The subject of research is covert investigative (search) actions and operational and search measures. Methodology: dialectical method, formal logic methods, logical and semantic method, system analysis method, theoretical method, normative and dogmatic method, legal modeling method. The results of the study: Distinguishing between investigation and search measures, we apply the following principle: if the object of operational activities is already known to law enforcement officers we are talking about search measures, if not – about investigation measures. Practical consequences: The possibility of legal regulation of the use of tools of operational and search activity at the stages of criminal proceedings is determined. Value / originality: It is concluded that the list of operational and search measures also includes those that have no analogues with the CISAs and therefore operational and search measures do not duplicate the CISAs, but perform the task of ensuring the possibility of fulfilling the investigator’s instructions to conduct the CISAs.

Although there are legal instruments that contain provisions of laws and regulations in the field of forestry and the environment, namely the Law Number 18 of 2013 concerning Prevention and Eradication of Forest Destruction and the Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management.

What is being done now is to arrest the illegal logging actors who carry out

The Laplace transform of the extinction time is determined for a general birth and death process with arbitrary catastrophe rate and catastrophe size distribution. It is assumed only that the birth rates satisfyλ0= 0,λj> 0 for eachj> 0, and. Necessary and sufficient conditions for certain extinction of the population are derived. The results are applied to the linear birth and death process (λj=jλ, µj=jμ) with catastrophes of several different types.
