Corruption remains one of the largest political and socio-economic problems in Ukraine, which hinders the development of state and civil society, deepens social crisis phenomena and in general undermines the image of Ukraine on the world stage. The development and implementation of anticorruption measures, in particular legal responsibility, in practice require the strict observance of the procedures for their application in order to prevent violations of the rights of those concerned. It is a question of ensuring a balance between the inevitability of the punishment of a person who committed an offense related to corruption and its rights and freedoms guaranteed by current legislation. Achievement of the formulated goal is carried out with the help of complex and consistent application of the corresponding scientific tool presented by such methods of scientific knowledge as logic-semantic, systemic, structural-logical, methods of analysis and synthesis, etc. The purpose of the paper is to study the problems of legal regulation of proceedings in prosecution for violations related to corruption and to formulate proposals for their solution. The stated goal is achieved through the complex and consistent application of appropriate scientific tools, presented by such methods of scientific cognition as logical-semantic, systemic, structural-logical, methods of analysis and synthesis, etc. Results. The article analyzes the issue of administrative liability for corruption offenses. The gaps in the legal regulation of liability for offenses related to corruption are revealed, ways of solving the above problems are offered. The attention is focused on the necessity of observing the guarantees of a fair court in bringing the person to administrative liability for offenses related to corruption. Conclusions. Since the norms of Code of Ukraine on administrative offenses do not allow to fully ensure the right to a fair trial, the urgent need is to develop and adopt a law on amendments to the Code of Criminal Procedure or its new edition, which would take into account the practice of the European Court of Human Rights, including in cases of offenses related to with corruption.

This research is devoted to the disclosure of the institution of precautionary measures, namely - securing the claim, which is one of the procedural mechanisms for ensuring access to justice. Because it is the possibility of execution of the final court decision that will ensure a fair trial for each participant in the process. To ensure the reliability and completeness of the results obtained by the authors in this study used a set of general and special methods that are characteristic primarily of legal science. The integrated use of such methods ensured the achievement of the purpose and objectives of the study, as well as the persuasiveness of the conclusions. In particular, the dialectical method was used to study the legal nature and significance of the institution of precautionary measures in civil and commercial proceedings. Methods of analysis and synthesis were used in the formulation of basic concepts, such as «precautionary measures», «securing the claim» and so on. The historical and legal method allowed us to focus on the process of legal regulation and legislative consolidation of the institution of security measures. The formal-logical method was used in the analysis of the norms of the current legislation and theoretical developments concerning, in particular, the essence of procedural tools of accessibility or restriction of access to justice. The empirical basis of the study was the materials of domestic judicial practice. Based on the study, the authors conclude that securing the claim as a procedural phenomenon cannot remain unchanged, it acquires new features over time, loses archaic elements, but still does not lose, but rather, on the contrary, increases its importance in modern civil process. Now securing the claim is an integral part of the institution of security measures (along with the provision of evidence), which corresponds to the protected function. Thus, the actual enforcement of court decisions is largely intended to guarantee the institution of securing the claim as one of the types of precautionary measures. Participants in civil proceedings apply to this institution in order to guarantee the execution of future court decisions and prevent them from causing significant harm.

Scientific and practical significance. Within the framework of the research, a complex scientific theoretical and legal analysis of the constitutional and legal category “the right of citizens to freedom of opinion” in cyberspace was carried out; a comparison of Russian and foreign legislation. Results. It was suggested that the concept of the right to freedom of opinion in cyberspace be structured into separate elements. Following the logic of the proposed classification, the author proposes the main directions of improving the legal regulation of this right. The significance of the study is made by proposals to improve Russian legislation in the sphere of securing the right of citizens to freedom of opinion, as well as further development of mechanisms for the realization of this right in cyberspace.

The subject. The article deals with topical issues of ensuring the realization of the employee's right to healthy and safe working conditions.The purpose of the study is to identify the main directions of improvement of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation in the field of labor protection.The methodology includes formal-legal method, the analysis of the components of the right to healthy and safe working conditions, as well as the right to information and related rights.The main results. The author formulates proposals for amending a number of articles of the Labor Code, including those containing the most important branch principles, as well as those on termination of the employment contract and ensuring the right of an employee to a workplace that meets the requirements of labor protection.Examples from judicial practice show a low level of legal awareness of Russian employers and their disdainful attitude to labor legislation. This is expressed not only in violation of labor protection rules, but also in the absence of proper registration of an employee, when a written labor contract is not concluded with him. Thus, the relationship between the norms of different labor law institutions is expressed, expressed in their protective potential. The existing approach to understanding labor protection in a broad sense to a certain extent may be in demand even now. For example, by improving the norms on the conclu-sion, modification and termination of an employment contract, it is possible to achieve in parallel a certain improvement in working conditions for workers. This is due to the fact that legal registration of employment in most cases is associated with a higher level of security, since an employee without clearance does not actually exist for the state control and supervisory bodies.Conclusions. Understanding of labor protection as all-round protection of labor capacity of the person, being so widespread in Soviet time, looks quite justified nowadays too. The Labor Code of the Russian Federation, as the central regulatory legal act, should be considered as an instrument not only of legal regulation, but also of a powerful ideological impact on domestic employers, and changes and additions to labor legislation concerning labor protection should be made according to above-mentioned conclusion.

The subject of this research is practice of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation applied in legal regulation of lawmaking process. Analysis is conducted on legislation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation regarding the establishment of their rights to realization of the legislative initiative. The author’s arguments on carrying out the analysis of regional legislation with regards to establishment of a circle of subjects with the right of legislative initiative are grounded on the scholars’ opinion that the status of the subject of realization of legislative initiative is special. The fact of recognition of the subject of lawmaking process as a subject of legislative initiative is a juridical fact bot only for acquisition of the right to introduction of a bill, but also guarantees for participation in lawmaking process of the parliament. Therefore, establishment of a circle of subjects with the right of legislative initiative is crucial in determination of peculiarities of the regional lawmaking process. Application of the general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, allowed arranging the circle of the subjects of lawmaking process into groups, as well as formulate a conclusion on the specificities of setting rules for the lawmaking process realized in constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The philosophical methods of cognition of legal reality allowed determining the general rules of lawmaking process, summarize the acquired data, and comprehensively examine the research materials. Having analyzed the practice of legal regulation, the author identified the flaws in terminology used in practice of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. Recommendations are made to pay closer attention to ambiguity of legislation in some regions of the Russian Federation. A conclusion is formulated on the positive experience that can become an example for other constituent entities of the Russian Federation in setting rules for the lawmaking process.

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.

The aim: To analyze law enforcement practice on the basis of the national legislation of foreign states to single out features of legal regulation of the right to euthanasia realization and to outline the Ukrainian prospects of euthanasia legalization. Materials and methods: The empirical basis of the research is the legislation of some European countries (Belgium, Spain, Italy, Portugal, and the Netherlands) and Canada; decisions of the European Court of Human Rights on the right to voluntary death and the obligations of states; the results of a survey of 750 respondents conducted by the authors. The methodological basis of the study were philosophical views on life, death, and the right to certainty, formal-logical method (analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, etc.), comparative, analytical, statistical, sociological methods of cognition, as well as a synergetic approach. Conclusions: The issue of legal regulation of euthanasia is multifactorial, socially conditioned, and requires a positive action of the state both in terms of regulation and/or prohibition, and the proper provision of citizens with health care. Legislative support for the human right to a “dignified death” is dictated, to some extent, by society’s demand, which must be finally resulted in the draft law. As for Ukraine, the adoption of such a law is obviously premature. Although according to a survey of citizens on euthanasia and the feasibility of introducing such a law in Ukraine, 57% are positive about the experience of other countries, and 41% were in favor of adopting a law in Ukraine, it is not possible to assess their opinion due to ignorance of legislation where euthanasia is allowed.
