// Police and Investigative Activity.

DOI: 10.25136/2409-7810.2019.4.31331 URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=31331
Abstract:
Problems of adhering to the periods of limitation for the institution of administrative proceedings in cases of administrative offences in business activities are urgent. One of the peculiarities of administrative punishment for administrative offences is the variety of special periods of limitation for the institution of administrative proceedings. The authors give special attention to the alarming fact that authorized bodies and courts tend to apply different periods of limitation for the institution of administrative proceedings to the same articles of the Special Part of the Administrative Offences Code of Russia. The authors use the systems method, which helps develop the comprehensive characteristics of administrative regulation of procedural periods; the structural-functional method, which helps reveal the essence of the basic elements of the administrative responsibility implementation mechanism; particular components of sociological methodology used for the development and substantiation of the assessment of the current state of administrative practice of adherence to procedural limits. The aim of the research is to study the roots of this negative law-enforcement practice of non-observance of procedural limits. Based on the analysis of judicial practice, the authors formulate proposals on the improvement of the current provisions of the Administrative Offences Code in order to prevent the development of the negative tendency of non-compliance with periods of limitation for the institution of administrative proceedings in cases of administrative offences in business activities.
