The object of this research is the social relations that arise in exercising discretionary powers by the prosecutor in the context of his oversight activity over execution of laws by the entities under supervision, essence, principles and limits, as well as the problems of their implementation occurring in prosecutorial activity.

The novelty of this work and the author’s special contribution consist in the fact that based on the obtained results, the author offers a definition of the discretionary authority of the prosecutor, principles and limits of their application, as well as the way the legal constructs involving such authority should be structured.

In the article, from the standpoint of legal science and practice of state regulation of migration relations, the author examines the application of legal liability to violators of the norms of migration legislation. The author conducts a theoretical and legal analysis of the institution of legal responsibility. The definition of legal responsibility as a legal reaction of society and the state to the unlawfulness of actions (inaction) allows us to conclude that the introduction by the state of special legal regulation is a form of disposition of state power. The implementation of legal responsibility in the dynamics of legal regulation is characterized by the intertwining of regulatory, substantive and procedural and legal aspects, which allow ensuring the passage of responsibility through all stages and procedures of legal regulation, which creates an ordering effect. In conclusion, the author points out that legal responsibility, being an element of the legal regulation mechanism, clearly demonstrates its specificity and features, as well as general efficiency in the law enforcement process of imposing punishment.

The subject of this article was one of the fundamental and debatable provisions of the doctrine of civil procedural law - its subject. The author on the basis of the analysis of scientific sources, the legislation carried out the retrospective analysis of formation and development of scientific thought concerning definition of a subject of civil procedural law. The paper identifies two main approaches to understanding the subject of the industry and elements of its structure. Analyzing the "narrow" approach to defining the subject of civil procedural law and certain areas of its coverage in the works of scholars, the author substantiates the position on the relationship between procedural activities and social relations that arise between the court and the parties. Particular attention is paid to the history of inclusion in the subject of civil procedural law enforcement proceedings. The author's position on the subject and system of civil procedural law is substantiated. The essence of the "broad" approach to the definition of the subject of the industry by including in its structure of non-jurisdictional forms of legal protection is revealed. The essence of two opposite tendencies in scientific researches concerning structure of a subject of civil procedural law is revealed: the first tendency is reduced to expansion of a subject at the expense of inclusion in it of economic procedural law, at ignoring independent character of this branch of law; the second - the narrowing of the subject of civil procedural law by removing from its structure of enforcement proceedings, the relations arising in the consideration of labor cases. The connection between the definition of the subject of civil procedural law and the jurisdiction of the court defined in the legislation is substantiated. It is proved that the tendency to narrow the subject of civil procedural law was embodied in the legislation of the country as a result of judicial reform in 2016, which led to conflicts in legislation and problems in law enforcement. Based on the theoretical model of determining the subject of legal regulation and using the analogy of determining its structure, the elements of the structure of the subject of civil procedural law are distinguished and its definition is formulated.

The article discusses the constitutional category of «labour», the definition of which is not enshrined in legislative acts because it is considered to be a well-known category, which is not a special legal one and does not require any clarification. However, this approach creates difficulties for legal regulation, as it blurs the boundaries for the legislator and the executor. Lack of awareness of the concept of a regulated category can lead to a situation when the legislator, creating a new law or making amendments to an existing one, will subject to regulation the area that does not pertain to the relevant legal phenomenon, or vice versa - will ignore part of the content of the regulated category, which is certain to negatively affect the quality of legal regulation. Law enforcement practices similarly face difficulties in having only doctrinal understandings of statutory concepts, which creates inconsistency in decisions made by lawyers in course of their professional work. The 1993 Constitution of the Russian Federation enshrined the category of «labour» in a number of articles, but did not clarify the interpretation of its concept. The analysis of economic and legal views on labor allows us to conclude that, despite the status of a well-known category, which, it would seem, does not need an explanation, only the presence of clear criteria for recognizing an activity as labor, provides high-quality legal regulation, in particular, it allows not only to separate the types of activities that are not subject to legal regulation, but also to choose the right branch of law that regulates social relations in each particular case.

Introduction: currently, retail sales contracts are widely used, under which technically sophisticated goods are transferred to the property, which form a special group of goods and have the specifics of the legal regulation. Meanwhile, there is no legal definition of a technically sophisticated good, and there are no regulatory criteria for this legal category. In this regard, the authors set the goal: to summarize the approaches developed by judicial practice on this issue, to identify what normative justification of technical sophistication is used when including goods in the List of technically sophisticated goods. Results: the importance of qualifying a product as technically sophisticated is investigated, the problems of qualifying goods as technically sophisticated are identified, and the reasons for determining the category of wireless devices equipped with a touch screen, two or more functions, and the absence of similar devices without a touch screen in the List of technically sophisticated products are established. Conclusions: based on the analysis of the legislation and the materials of judicial practice, the problems of applying the List of technically sophisticated goods and the ambiguity of the law enforcement are identified. Based on the results of the work, the authors have developed the practical proposals and recommendations for improving the legislation.

Society Today

Any society today is a system consisting of certain objects and entities that constantly interact with each other, it requires introducing an effective social and administrative mechanism that would timely regulate the social relations and norms of participants’ behavior of such relationships, maintain their organization, orderliness and stable development, contributing to proper regulatory order.   Observing the political steps of the Ukrainian government along the path of European standards, we can argue about the actualization of democratic values implementation and the establishment of an effective state power system, where the content and focus of the state determine human rights and freedoms.   Considering the above, the analysis of problematic issues arising during the study of the administrative regulation effectiveness of forensic activities is an urgent need today.   Based on the analysis of scientific sources and Ukrainian legislation, forensic activity in the article is considered as one of the administrative and legal regulation objects, the purpose of which is to establish the rule of law and strengthen institutions at all levels in the field of management in general and in law enforcement and judicial authorities in particular on the basis of the principle of human rights and fundamental freedoms respect. It should also be borne in mind that forensic science occupies a special place in implementation of the principle of rule of law and citizens’ rights and freedoms protection, since the effective functioning of the constitutional foundations of the entire human rights system of power in Ukraine largely depends on it. Thus, the current legislation of Ukraine, as part of the ongoing legal reform, should be aimed at enhancing the role and reassessing the importance of forensic examinations institution, without which investigation of the case cannot be effectively carried out and the crime solved.
