Theoretical and applied research of the features of the legal status of the subjects of civil law remains debatable today. Doctrinal and legislative analysis of this subject points to unresolved issues in this area. In particular, the provision on defining the state as a party to civil law remains controversial. There is no consensus on the definition of individuals and legal entities as subjects of civil law among scholars. Furthermore, the legal regulation of certain types of entities is somewhat unsystematic and chaotic. This is largely due to the insufficient development of theoretical issues related to the subjects of civil law. The above issues determine the relevance of the study of the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law. The purpose of the study is to investigate the features of the legal status of subjects of civil law based on doctrinal and legislative analysis. The study is based on a systematic approach, which lies in studying a complex system of relationships between subjects of civil law. Furthermore, the study is based on the laws and principles of dialectics, which contribute to the study of the legal status of the subjects of civil law. Systemic and structural-functional analysis was used to comprehensively describe the legal status of subjects of civil law. The historical method contributed to the study of the evolution of research on the subjects of civil law. The formal legal method helped identify the special features of the provisions of regulations concerning the subjects of civil law. With the help of the comparative legal method, the study analysed the provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine in terms of regulation of subjects of civil law and such regulation was compared with other countries. The study defined the concepts and types of subjects of civil law and considered the features of the legal status of individuals, legal entities, as well as the state as a special participant of civil law. Special attention was paid to the historical analysis of the development of approaches to the definition of subjects of law, starting with Roman law

The relevance of the study of the problem of affiliation of legal entities is determined by the lack of a coherent legal mechanism to ensure the resolution of conflicts of interest between dependent persons. As of today, Russian legislation as a whole does not contain clear provisions regarding the concept of the affiliation of legal entities. Certain laws contain only separate independent concepts, for example, the concept of “affiliation” is used in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation; in the Federal Law «On Competition» - the concept of «group of persons»; in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation - the concept of «interdependent persons». Therefore, the study of the problem of settling relations with affiliates deserves special attention. The objectives of this study are the systematization and analytical study of the legal regulation of the institution of the affiliation of legal entities. In the course of the study, the authors used the following methods: analysis and synthesis, modeling, comparison, analysis of the regulatory framework, synthesis, formal legal method The article examines the issues of legal regulation of the affiliation of a legal entity. The definition of the concept of “affiliation” is given, criteria and signs of affiliation of a legal entity are defined, various scientific approaches to the definition of this category are given, problems of correlation with economic and other types of relations between affiliates are explored. In the course of the study, the authors came to the conclusion that the institution of affiliation in its present form undoubtedly needs to be reformed. It is necessary to develop a unified law, reflecting all the nuances of the concept of “affiliation” and the features of the transactions with affiliated persons.

In accordance with Part 2 of Art. 17 of the Constitution of Ukraine, military units, first of all, are the bearers of power and act in public relations as subjects of realization of the goal set by the state in the form of repulse of possible aggression from outside, and therefore the main tasks, internal structure, subordination, reporting and control in this area is governed by constitutional and administrative law. However, in some cases, the military unit for the implementation of its tasks may act as an independent entity in civil law, and therefore, certain relations are governed not only by constitutional, administrative, economic, but also civil law. This paper will deal with contractual obligations. The supply contract is extremely important in providing Ukraine, its subjects and state entities with the necessary goods, performance of works, provision of services. In essence, the institute of contract law is a legal means of implementing state policy in the field of industrial production, construction, national defense, social assistance, science, culture, the implementation of basic social and production tasks. Currently, there is a trend aimed at increasing the budget funds used through public procurement. In this regard, an urgent problem is the effective legal regulation of public relations related to the supply of goods for public use. The regulatory framework governing these legal relations must be transparent, understandable to all participants in trade and procurement operations, operational on changes in socio-economic conditions in the country, have an anti-corruption orientation. The quality of goods purchased for the state also remains a long-standing problem. One of the topical issues for the science of civil law is the question of the subject of the contract, with which the Central Committee of Ukraine connects the conclusion of the contract, its validity and some other significant circumstances. According to case law, disputes arising from the contract are usually complicated by non-compliance by the parties with the provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine on the subject of the contract. The article analyzes the subject of the contract for the supply of material resources to military units. Military units are considered by the author as legal entities of a subject of public law.

The article deals with an important and relevant topic – the definition of the concept and essence of cryptocurrencies, the study of the problems of their legal regulation, the rationale for control over their turnover, as well as the analysis of ways to counter money laundering that involves cryptocurrency. The authors emphasize that measures taken exclusively at the state level are not enough to create an effective, integrated and comprehensive system for regulating the legal status of cryptocurrencies. Therefore, international cooperation and the strengthening of cooperation between various states in the field of cryptocurrency regulation is important. The authors analyze the scientific doctrine regarding the essence of cryptocurrency. It was found out that there was no single approach to the definition of “cryptocurrency” among scientists. Moreover, cryptocurrencies in various laws of the world have different status. The authors used general scientific and special scientific methods, which provided an objective analysis of the purpose of the study. The research methods were used in interconnection and interdependence, which ensured the comprehensiveness and completeness of the research, as well as the validity of the obtained scientific results. The authors have determined states where cryptocurrency has an official status, is at the initial stage of legal regulation or completely prohibited at the state level. The relevance of the research consists in the actual absence of the legal framework for the regulation of cryptocurrencies, which is conditioned by the novelty of this phenomenon and the problems related to its functioning. The authors proposed their own definition of cryptocurrency based on its main features.

Despite the lack of legal regulation of cryptocurrency, its spread is significant and cannot be stopped. However, we consider it necessary to emphasize that the legislative vacuum is the basis for offenses and a significant delay in the economic and legal development of the state. It is impossible to build a strong economy and promote business development, trying to avoid the “problematic” issues facing the state. The term “cryptocurrency” does not have a single definition, and some of the scientists refer to it as digital money (currency), some – to virtual currency. However, there are features that distinguish cryptocurrency from other virtual currencies, including: valuation, structure, anonymity, transparency, transaction execution, legal aspects. Therefore, the advantages of using cryptocurrency include: decentralization, inability to fake, deflation, low cost of maintenance, etc. It should be noted that at the moment there is no clear tax algorithm that will work for every country without exception. Given the economic, social, legislative and cultural characteristics of states, the definition of the legal status of cryptocurrency is different. In Ukraine, proper taxation of cryptocurrency cannot be implemented without defining the legal status at the legislative level, which is why it is one of the first steps of the state in the given direction. Considering the fact that additional funds for the state budget, and especially in the current economic situation, are never unnecessary and can be efficiently spent on expenditures in different spheres, the issue of taxation of cryptocurrency has become quite acute today as a way of attracting additional funds for the state. ensuring that it fulfills its tasks and functions.

The article discusses the concepts and types of Internet users. Using technical and legal means, a personal definition of an Internet user is proposed. By the term «Internet user» we propose to understand — a participant of Internet relations (both a natural and a legal entity) who uses capabilities of information environment to satisfy his/her personal needs in sale of goods, works and services. The researcher notes that in national legislation of Ukraine there is no legal regulation of the concept and types of Internet users. The study analyzed and formulated types of Internet users. The Internet user, as a participant in various Internet relations, is marked by special features due to the nature of such relations. A specific composition of Internet users who take part in such relations was identified depending on dedicated types of Internet relations. Their brief characteristic is provided. At the same time, legal status of Internet user is compared with the consumer. On the whole, current legislation is not a perfect means of legal influence on internet relations which are connected with Internet user, and requires its timely improvement. It was proposed to supplement provisions of Law of Ukraine «On the protection of consumer rights» with provisions that extend legal status to Internet user which consumer has in its traditional sense (i.e. the concept, rights, obligations, procedure of judicial protection, liability for violation the legislation about protection of Internet users’ rights). The concept of Internet user fully reflects characteristics of a participant in civil law relations. This is especially clearly emphasized by analysis of its types and ratio with consumer category. The Internet user is endowed with a wide range of «traditional» rights and obligations of a participant in civil law relations, which are enshrined in national and international legislation. The Internet user acquires concrete property and personal non-property rights and corresponding duties that determine its civil and legal status.

The article analyzes the legal status of websites and domain names and scientific developments of scientists regarding the feasibility of determining them as independent objects of intellectual property.  As follows from the analysis of national legislation, some certain gaps have been defined and the ways to eliminate them have been recommended in order to improve the legal regulation of websites and domain names. The position of scholars regarding defining websites and domain names as independent objects of intellectual property in the civil law has been considered reasonable and rational, as well as adding them to article 420 of the Civil Code of Ukraine, which specifies objects of intellectual property subject to legal protection in the state. There was a suggestion to adopt a special law, which should implement legal regulation of specific objects of intellectual property that are used only in virtual space, and will provide an effective system for protecting the rights of owners of websites and domain names.

The relevance of research on the problems associated with the implementation by spouses of enshrined in family law property rights and their protection in case of non-recognition, contestation or violation due to the fact that the property rights of spouses form the basis of the legal status of spouses and their implementation serves to strengthen the family’s the material well-being of both spouses and children. The purpose of the study is to identify gaps in legislation governing spouses’ property relations and to determine their impact on securing the enjoyment and protection of their property rights. Various methods of scientific knowledge were used in the research. Thus, the historical method was used in the analysis of the provisions of the Code of Laws on Marriage and Family of Ukraine, which regulated the property rights of spouses and determined ways to protect them. The comparative legal method was used to compare the norms of the CC of Ukraine and the FC of Ukraine governing alike or similar relations, in particular regarding shared ownership, invalidation of contracts and the like. Methods of analysis and synthesis were used to identify the shortcomings and gaps in current family law and in the practice of its application. On the basis of the formal-logical method, proposals for improvement of some provisions of the family law of Ukraine were formulated. The paper considers the general rule that a husband, wife disposes of the property, which is the subject of the joint property right of the spouse, by mutual consent. Another aspect of spousal property rights concerns the maintenance and legal regulation of a spouse. No less problematic aspect of the exercise and protection of property rights of spouses, which is considered in the paper, is the issue of property division. In particular, in case law, when considering cases of separation of property of a spouse, difficulties arise in the event of deviation from the principle of equality of spouses in the circumstances of significant importance. Such circumstances, which were analysed in the article, may be the reasons for both a decrease and an increase in the share of one of the spouses, including the former. The results obtained can be used to improve family law and the practice of its application, in further scientific studies concerning the property rights of spouses, as well as in teaching the course of family law in higher education
