Administrative and legal responsibility of a private notary for corruption or corruption-related offenses
Authors: Ladina L. 
Published: July 2023

The article examines the specifics of administrative and legal liability of notaries for corruption and corruption-related offenses. Anti-corruption is one of the important tasks of the state, therefore anti-corruption legislation is reformed quite often, as a result of which gaps and inconsistencies between individual legal acts may arise. A notary public is a person authorized by the state to perform notarial activities. Official duties and status of notaries contribute to increasing the trust of citizens, so private notaries can use their official powers for personal purposes, as a result of which damage may be caused to public values and the state.
The administrative and legal responsibility of notaries for corruption offenses is aimed at preventing the commission of such offenses, educating the notary public and protecting the professional sphere of notaries. The administrative responsibility of a notary is a guarantee and a means of ensuring the rights and legal interests of citizens and legal entities when performing notarial and registration actions.
Based on the analysis of normative legal acts, a discrepancy was found in the aspect of administrative and legal responsibility of notaries for corruption or corruption-related offenses. Thus, private notaries are among subjects who can commit corruption-related offenses, while the legislation on notaries today does not provide for bringing a notary to administrative responsibility.
It was determined that, in this aspect, it is important to increase the effectiveness of anti-corruption in the field of activity of notaries and it is expedient to eliminate the shortcomings in the legislation and implement the electronic form of the state registration procedure. With the help of the implementation of the specified measures, it is possible to increase the effectiveness of the legislation on the administrative and legal responsibility of a private notary for corruption and corruption-related offenses. Further research is possible in the directions of improving the legislation on the administrative and legal responsibility of notaries for corruption and corruption-related crimes.
State regulation of trade activity in Ukraine in the contex of modern global challenges
Authors: Syrotko M. 
Published: July 2023

The article analyzes the current state of legal regulation of trade activities in Ukraine and its impact on current global challenges. The topic’s relevance is due to the growing importance of the role of both domestic and international trade and the need to create effective mechanisms of state regulation to ensure the country’s economic development and its integration into the world market.
The study aims to analyze the changes in state regulation of trade in Ukraine caused by global challenges, particularly the war in Ukraine.
To achieve this goal, the research methods used were analyzing regulatory acts and scientific works by scientists, as well as studying statistical data, expert opinions, and reports.
The study results show that Ukraine has made significant progress in implementing state regulation mechanisms, such as tariffs, licenses, quotas, currency controls, trade agreements, and subsidies. Ukraine has undergone significant changes in its foreign trade policy, especially regarding the direction and position of the EU and the refusal to cooperate with Russia and Belarus. Before the outbreak of the full-scale war, most of Ukraine’s trade was carried out by the sea. However, since March, there has been a shift in trade activity toward land transportation. Moreover, the EU has become both a transit and consumer market for Ukraine, which has implications for the structure and volume of the country’s trade.
The article reveals and systematizes the news of the legislative framework related to tariff regulation, licensing, and quotas for trade activities. The practical significance of this study lies in the possibility of its use for enterprises engaged in foreign economic activity in Ukraine under martial law.
Forms of domestic violence, mechanisms of protection and legal regulation of its manifestations
Authors: Kovalenko І. 
Published: July 2023

The article examines the forms and types of occurrence of domestic violence in Ukraine. As well as legal regulation of manifestations of domestic violence.
Violence is a consequence of inequality between women and men in society. This is supported by a culture of intolerance and denial. Unequal power relations between the sexes make it difficult for women to avoid violence. Discrimination and attitudes towards women make it difficult for them to avoid violent situations. Experienced violence is not always taken seriously by the community and authorities, which increases women's vulnerability to further violence and even murder.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than one third of women in the world have experienced physical or sexual violence, which was carried out by a partner or a stranger. In many countries, the lack of effective measures to prevent and respond to domestic violence, as well as insufficient attention to this problem in society, lead to the fact that many people are left without help and support.
Therefore, the study of the problem of protection against domestic violence is important and will help to understand the mechanisms of this problem, ways to prevent it and fight against it. In addition, the development of effective strategies to protect against domestic violence can ensure the safety and well-being of people affected by this problem. Therefore, it can be argued that the topic "protection from domestic violence" is very relevant and needs further research. The problem of domestic violence is intensifying in connection with the recent events that Ukraine is experiencing. The COVID-19 pandemic, which has worried the state and its population in recent years. Due to the strict quarantine and remote work at home, the home has become the most dangerous place for many women. Many women were forced to spend more time with their abusers. This put women's lives and safety at risk.
Currently, in wartime conditions, domestic violence has not receded. At the beginning of a new period in the history of our country, many people lost their jobs, even working at home became impossible. If during the quarantine, you people were somehow distracted, then in the conditions of war you are left alone with your family. Due to constant stress, many people literally lost their minds and began to behave very badly. It is because of this that domestic violence takes place.
The problem of domestic violence is relevant all over the world. Domestic violence is a gross violation of human rights. Every day it encroaches on the most valuable goods of a person - life and health, honor and dignity. Such a dangerous phenomenon is also known to modern Ukrainian society, which is confirmed by the data of sociological surveys of the population of Ukraine, according to which almost half of the population has experienced its various forms.
Features of the application of temporary access to things and documents in the process of criminal procedural evidence
Authors: Bespalko І. 
Published: July 2023

In accordance with Part 2 of Art. 93 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine (hereinafter referred to as the Criminal Procedure Code), the prosecution, as a subject of evidence in a judicial investigation, obtains evidence through conducting investigative (detective) actions and covert investigative (detective) actions, requesting and receiving things, documents, information, experts' conclusions, audit conclusions and inspection reports from public authorities, local self-government bodies, enterprises, institutions and organizations, officials and individuals, as well as carrying out other procedural actions provided for by the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine. Other procedural actions that can be ways of obtaining evidentiary information include: filing motions, complaints, statements, objections, as well as separate measures to ensure criminal proceedings, in particular, temporary access to things and documents, temporary seizure of property, seizure of property. In this article, I would like to consider in more detail the specific features of such a procedural action as temporary access to things and documents, provided for in Chapter 15 of the Criminal Procedure Code. A system analysis of the provisions of the given chapter, other norms of the current the Criminal Procedure Code, as well as the application thereof, suggest a conclusion that there is an imperfection in the legislative regulation on the issue of applying temporary access to things and documents in the process of criminal procedural evidence.
The publication comments on a number of norms of the Criminal Procedure Code which establish the specifics of the application of the given measure of ensuring criminal proceedings in the process of criminal procedural evidence during the pre-trial investigation, and proposes approaches to eliminating their shortcomings, based on the analysis of the specifics of the normative regulation of temporary access to things and documents. This issue is evaluated differently by both practitioners and scientists and is actively used during criminal proceedings, which is confirmed by court statistics. Theoretical and practical aspects of the given issue are considered. The article claims that despite the widespread use of the given institute, there is a significant amount of misunderstandings and contradictions between theory and practice. The paper contains critical remarks regarding the procedure of normative regulation and the use of temporary access to things and documents in the process of criminal procedural evidence. The materials of the article are both of theoretical and practical value. They can be used for further scientific research on the specifics of the application of measures to ensure criminal proceedings in the process of criminal procedural evidence, as well as for the proper understanding and implementation of law-enforcement criminal procedural activities.
Criminal sanctions in articles on public appeals to commit criminal offenses against the foundations of national security of Ukraine
Authors: Kryvopuskova К. 
Published: July 2023

The article is devoted to the analysis of penal sanctions of criminal law provisions on public calls for committing criminal offences against the foundations of national security of Ukraine (part 2, 3 of article 109, part 1, 2, 3 of article 110, part 1, 5 of article 1111 of the Criminal code of Ukraine). The author identifies the shortcomings of the penal sanctions of these criminal law provisions.
The author classifies the penal sanctions of the articles for public calls to commit criminal offences against the foundations of national security of Ukraine. It is established that the sanctions of the elements of public calls for committing criminal offences against the foundations of national security of Ukraine (except for the sanction provided for in part 1 of article 1111) are cumulative and provide for the possibility of additional punishment in the form of confiscation of property (part 2, 3 of article 109, part 1, 2, 3 of article 110, part 5 of article 1111 of the Criminal сode). At the same time, part 5 of article 1111 of the Criminal сode of Ukraine contains two cumulative penal sanctions (mandatory and optional).
The article analyses the proposals of Ukrainian legal scholars concerning the improvement of penal sanctions under the provisions on public calls for criminal offences against the foundations of national security of Ukraine. In particular, the author provides the arguments which demonstrate the need to provide for imprisonment as the main punishment in part 1 of article 1111 of the Criminal сode of Ukraine. In addition, the author supports the proposal of scholars to provide for deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities as an additional punishment in part 1 of article 1111 of the Criminal сode of Ukraine.
The analysis of the existing sanctioning provisions proves that the legislator uses a non-systematic approach when assessing the public danger of public calls for criminal offences against the foundations of national security of Ukraine. Given the need to strengthen the protection of Ukraine’s national security in the context of Russia’s full-scale armed aggression against Ukraine, the author identifies the ways to improve the system of penal sanctions under criminal law provisions on public calls for criminal offences against the foundations of Ukraine’s national security.
Correlation between the categories «law» and «morality» in the context of the practice of advocacy
Authors: Zaborovskyy V. , Manzyuk V. , Kopcha І. 
Published: July 2023

This article analyzes both the common features and the features that distinguish the categories of «law» and «morality» primarily through the prism of the specifics of the legal status of a lawyer and the lawyer's activity as a whole. The positions of scientists regarding the definition of the relationship between these categories are analyzed. Attention is focused on the fact that most scientists consider such a relationship through the prism of the complementarity of the institutions of law and morality as regulators of social relations.
Within the framework of this article, the relationship between the categories «law» and «morality» was investigated precisely through the prism of the lawyer's professional activity. A conclusion is drawn according to which, in the process of lawyer activity, there is a coincidence (combination) of legal and purely moral aspects (the norms of law and morality are inextricably linked), and such activity by its nature should be perceived precisely through the prism of morality, taking into account the special role of moral principles for the profession of a lawyer (a lawyer should proceed from a deeper understanding of the categories «justice», «justice», «honor», «dignity», «good faith», «responsibility», etc. both in carrying out his professional activities and in everyday life).
Attention is drawn to the fact that a lawyer in any of his activities, including in everyday life, must first of all strictly observe the moral duties imposed on him by his special status (his profession), which, in combination with legal ones, embody his a professional duty, the failure of which entails disciplinary responsibility.
In order to achieve the set goal and reveal the stipulated tasks, the authors used the methods characteristic of legal science, and the research itself was conducted using primarily systemic-structural and comparative-legal methods, as well as the dialectical method of learning legal reality.
Judicial reform in Ukraine: the certainty of a categorical apparatus
Authors: Stefanchuk M. 
Published: July 2023

The article highlights normative-legal and theoretical-methodological approaches to understanding the legal categories and concepts of judicial reform in Ukraine.
It is established that the judicial reform, first of all, needs appropriate scientific support, in particular with regard to the clear definition of its subject and the development of a conceptual and categorical apparatus, given the lack of a clear regulatory and legal definition of a number of important terms, primarily such as «judicial system», «judicial authority», «justice system», «judiciary», which are repeatedly used in the development of relevant reformation provisions.
The purpose of the article is to establish the concept of the relationship of legal categories relevant to the judicial reform through the prism of legal analysis of normative-legal and theoretical-methodological approaches to their understanding and their further development.
It is also established that the current legislation of Ukraine does not contain a normative legal definition of such definitions as «judiciary», «judicial authority», «judicial system», «justice», «justice system», even though it actively uses them, carrying out legal regulation of relations in the field of the judiciary and the status of judges. In scientific legal literature, these terms are sometimes used without specifying their definition, given the close connection between them and meaningful interdependence, forming a synonymous line from them. Simultaneously, to comply with the subject of reformation provisions to such criteria as logic, rationality and non-contradiction, the need to distinguish between these terms has been proven, having identified the appropriate criteria for such a distinction.
According to the results of the legal analysis of legislative and doctrinal approaches to solving this problem, the expediency of recognizing the category «justice system» as a comprehensive legal category, which will include the judicial system and the systems of other legal institutions related to the judicial authority (Public prosecutor’s office, Bar, enforcement of decisions), which functionally ensure its implementation, is substantiated. It is proposed to rename Chapter VIII of the Constitution of Ukraine to the «Justice System», given that the administration of justice requires the proper organization of judicial power, its implementation by courts and ensure by specially authorized bodies and institutions, which in their totality and interrelationships constitute the justice system, which includes institutional, functional elements and organizational aspects.

Published: July 2023

Nowadays, in addition to the most important ones - human, financial or material - intangible resources such as knowledge, information, reputation or intellectual property rights are gaining more and more importance. There is a shift in emphasis from the production of things to the sale of knowledge and services. The value of physical labor is decreasing, and mental labor is valued. Intangible resources, along with intellectual capital, are considered the most valuable, so more and more people are trying to work and develop in this direction. One of the examples of such activity is the author’s work, which is characterized by a large scale of uncertainty and risks. Already at the stage of creating any work, it is difficult for the author to assess whether his work will really interest and attract the attention of a large audience or will remain completely unnoticed among the array of other works. Receipt of author’s remuneration for the creator is the incentive that contributes to the implementation of intellectual activity in the future. The creation and provision of civilized legal mechanisms is important for assisting the subject of copyright in receiving fair remuneration, ensuring recognition and respect from society for the results of his intellectual work. The significance of these tasks strengthens the European vector of our state’s development. The legislation of Ukraine in this area does not fully meet the recognized world standards and needs thorough improvement and development.
The article analyzes the concept of copyright, the necessity and peculiarities of collective management of property rights of authors and subjects of related rights. The main aspects of the legal regulation of property rights management under the legislation of Ukraine and the European Union are considered. The forms of using the results of creative activity, as well as the views of individual scientists on this issue, are revealed. The content of normative legal acts regarding economic support of rights holders through the management of property rights, as well as payments to rights holders, is highlighted. The necessity of reforming the mechanism of managing property rights of authors in Ukraine, providing state support to organizations that collectively manage property rights is substantiated.
