Therefore, the issues of regulatory and legal support of law enforcement agencies in responding to crisis situations come to the fore. The analysis of normative legal acts shows that legal norms are not formulated clearly enough and ambiguously interpreted by law enforcement agencies.

This article is focused on the enforcement of Russian anti-extremist legislation through web regulation. Russian law enforcement has shifted from a focus on preventing terrorist violence to a focus on prosecuting online hate speech and anti-authority rhetoric under current anti-extremist and anti-terrorist laws. The vague definition of extremist activity in federal law has been broadly interpreted by law enforcement agencies. Through the idea of public security, Russian law enforcement agencies have overestimated the threat of online content without regard for the context, audience, and impact of online statements. The result has been a steady increase in blocked access to web pages and sanctions on web users and providers. The article analyzes the legal norms pertaining to web content control, and details law enforcement practice and major trends. It also identifies the most common publications, people, and organizations targeted by Russian law enforcement for sanctions based on online statements.

The article notes that in modern conditions, the place of staffing of the public service in the law enforcement sphere is of fundamental importance, which is studied through the prism of recent changes in the administrative legislation of Ukraine as a new stage in the reform of the law enforcement system of our state. It has been substantiated that the organization of public service in modern conditions presupposes a significant number of interrelated forms and procedures of staffing. The appropriate forms include: the definition of a strategy for organizational and staff work; educational and preparatory work; selection and selection of personnel; appointment and replacement of posts, placement of personnel; ensuring the passage of service. It has been established that the forms of staffing determine the boundaries of the corresponding staffing procedures. The specifics of staffing procedures implemented within the framework of the specified forms of staffing (for example, within the framework of strategic organizational and staff work, procedures for calculating the staffing of the public service, positive incentives for this service, etc.) are established and characterized. It has been theoretically proved that the correct combination of available forms and procedures for staffing contributes to a real increase in the efficiency of the functioning of law enforcement agencies based on the qualitative use of the potential of employees without increasing the time and resources spent on their maintenance. It was determined that the staffing of the public service in the law enforcement sphere of Ukraine is an element of personnel management of public service bodies in the field of order protection, which is a normatively ordered system of interrelated elements that are in stable administrative and legal relations with each other in relation to staffing, within which their functioning as a whole. It is concluded that the forms and procedures for staffing the public service in the law enforcement sphere of Ukraine, in fact, like any other complex social and legal phenomenon in the plane of the functioning of public administration entities, is subject to careful administrative and legal regulation, within which legislators determine special legal requirements for the implementation of staffing of the public service in the relevant field. That is, a large number of requirements are put forward for the existence of staffing in the public service in the law enforcement sphere in a static and dynamic form at the normative level, aimed at properly staffing the subject of public administration with high-quality personnel, making effective and rational staffing management and increasing the level of uniqueness of this phenomenon. A special place among these regulatory requirements is occupied by the regulatory requirements for the organizational structure of the staffing of the public service in the law enforcement sphere.

The issue of post-mortem examination of animals, whose death occurred as a result of suffered gunshot wounds, is very rarely discussed in literature, most often on the occasion of researching into and describing other problems. This article presents an attempt to bring together the achievements of veterinary forensics in this area. As a starting point, the current legal regulation was adopted, pointing to penal sanctions resulting from the illegal use of weapons in relation to animals. Subsequently, the possibilities of using modern imaging techniques in post-mortem examinations carried out by veterinarians at the request of law enforcement agencies were presented. The scientific reports discussed herein have been supplemented by examples of sectional examinations carried out at the request of law enforcement agencies in Polish scientific institutions. The article indicates that the results of examination of gunshot wounds suffered by people in various circumstances may be used for the purpose of issuing forensic veterinary opinions, just as the results of examination of gunshot wounds of large mammals may be helpful in examining the effects of gunshot injuries in humans.

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.
