Annotation: This article is devoted to the study of the problem of abuse of the right to appeal the verdict by defense counsel and defendants. Despite the fact that this constitutional right is designed to protect the legitimate interests of the parties, it is often used as a tool to resolve private issues, which not only contradicts the main objectives of criminal proceedings, specified in Article 6 of the Criminal Procedural Code (hereinafter — CPC) of Russian Federation, but also violates the rights and legitimate interests of other participants in criminal proceedings. The main obstacle to combating such abuses is the formal compliance of the content of appeals with the norms of the CPC of Russian Federation. The actions of unscrupulous appellants entail a number of negative consequences, which should include an increase in the workload of appellate bodies, violation of the principle of reasonable time of criminal proceedings, evasion of defendants from criminal responsibility as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations. The article cites examples from law enforcement practice that contradict the applicants’ desire for justice, correction of judicial errors or restoration of their violated rights. The authors of the article conclude that it is necessary to improve Article 389.6 of the CPC of Russian Federation by clarifying the criteria for admissibility of appellate complaints (submissions). In the text of the article, the Russian Federation is abbreviated as RF.

Annotation: The purpose of the study is to provide a legal analysis of the processes and main forms of cooperation between the People’s Republic of China and the Russian Federation in the field of healthcare and medical personnel training, identify existing problems in this area and develop proposals for their solution. It is proved that in the context of global existential challenges to modern humanity, it is necessary to update global law, adequate to the nature and scale of threats. The information on the current state of cooperation between China and Russia in the field of medical education and professional training of doctors is summarized. A comparative review of the national legislation of the two countries and the scientific literature on the designated research topic has been conducted. It was noted that the PRC and the Russian Federation face similar problems and strive for the same goals in the field of healthcare and training of medical workers, and also have common needs for both bilateral cooperation and expanded interaction with member countries of regional and international governmental and professional communities. Based on a comparative legal analysis of the regulatory framework for medical education in China and Rus- sia at the present time, the conditions and factors determining the need to improve the professional training of medical professionals in these countries have been identified. Possible ways to strengthen the participation of the People’s Republic of China and the Russian Federation in global health management and the training of highly qualified medical personnel are considered. At the same time, it was noted that such problems as the lack of a clear position on the issues of medical education standards, insufficient legal support for medical activities and professional training, as well as contradictory reasoning of innovations prevent the forming of unified approaches to synchronization and management of training of highly qualified personnel in the process of implementation of grand national projects for the development of health care in the PRC and the Russian Federation in the period up to 2030. The opinion is expressed on the need to develop intergovernmental cooperation between China and Russia in the field of health care training, to expand the space of cooperation through the mechanisms of “SCO” and “BRICS plus” with the global involvement of countries with similar interests and goals, legal means, to strengthen the unified image of effective global interaction and partnership in the field of medical education and health care in general. The opinion is expressed about the expediency of creating a global synchronized system of medical education in the future, justified by the global normative system. In the text of the article, the Russian Federation is abbreviated as RF.

Annotation: The article analyzes the state of the legal culture of the Russian Federation in the modern period. It also dis- cusses the main terminological features related to the definition of the concept of legal culture and the structural elements included in it. In addition, the problems associated with the insufficiently high level of legal culture among citizens of the Russian Federation in modern realities are identified and analyzed. The data of sociological surveys of young people about public institutions that have the most influence on the growth of the legal culture of society are presented. The article emphasizes that in the processes of interaction between the state and soci- ety, the modernization of the legal policy of the state – the use of information technologies – contributes to the improvement of the level of legal culture of the Russian population. Such an “electronic State” extends not only to the sphere of public administration, but also covers public relations. Further in the article the current state of the legal culture of the Russian population are revealed, and ways to solve the problem of not having a sufficient level of its development are identified. Based on the conducted work, a conclusion was also made that charac- terizes the relevance and importance of improving the legal culture for the further development of the country.

Annotation: The article is devoted to topical issues of the forming and development of family law as an independent branch of Russian law. The authors consider the period of the IX–XVIII centuries in the context of the forming of family norms. The relevance of this topic is due to the importance of the family as a fundamental social institution. Much attention is currently being paid to the preservation of the traditional family values of our state. The effective operation of legal norms in this area guarantees the protection of the interests of members of each individual family. Therefore, the purpose of the authors of this article is: to identify the main directions of the development of marital and family relations in this period; to show how the basic norms and institutions that formed domestic family law were formed throughout the history of Russia; to analyze how the studied historical stage influenced the development of Russian family law. During of the study, historical, comparative legal, and formal legal methods were applied. The authors conclude about the natural development of marital and family relations in this period, about the role of the studied norma- tive legal acts in the forming of family law in Russia.

Annotation: The paper describes the normative provisions that have appeared in Russian information regulations in recent years and are characterized by a special range of subjects, grounds, sources and content of responsibility measures. The analysis of such regulatory frameworks made it possible to reveal a new approach to legal regulation, which takes into account the economic and technical nature of Cyberspace. Due to this, we assess the effectiveness of information and legal measures to be higher than that of classical types of legal responsibility in cross-border and anonymous cyberspace. Along with the application of measures by public authorities to influence information legal relations subjects, we have also noted the practice of business entities applying such measures, in particular, individuals who own or manage digital platforms. This allows us to establish the possibility of categorizing contractual information and legal responsibility. At the same time, the wide range of subjects involved in relations developing in cyberspace, along with a num- ber of other pressing issues in information law, contribute to inconsistencies in the application of information and legal measures. We consider this circumstance as an additional argument in favor of the codification of information legislation.
