Abstract: The article includes analysis of specific features and legal nature of one of the most controversial contractual constructions in the modern electric energy industry, which is the «last mile» contract. The key prerequisite to its appearance was the existing lack of balance in the price regulation of the electric energy sphere, when the tariffs, which are set by the state for the electric distribution network companies, are considerably different from the tariffs for the mainstream network companies. Additionally, the application of the financial and economic model, for which this contract provides, is aimed to improve the financial position of the distribution network companies. At the same time the right of organizations to conclude the «last mile» contracts is not beneficial for the customers, since they have to pay the higher tariffs for the electric energy. In this article the author provides a critical evaluation of this contractual construction, and he also notes that in the absence of the legislative legitimacy these relations may become an object for the anti-monopoly regulation. At the same time, the author comes to a conclusion that such contracts may be regarded as a form of abuse of right.

Abstract: The article includes analysis of the topical issues regarding the correlation of the terms administrative process and arbitration process The categories of cases, which are dealt with by the arbitration courts, fall within either administrative or arbitration procedural orders of adjudication. Such a division causes certain problems with the competence over the cases.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the studies of the processes of formation and transformation of the institutions of criminal law in the Russian legislation in X–XXI centuries, as well as to the analysis of the development of scientific thought on its nature and systematization. The author evaluates the factors, which influenced various stages of this process, he evaluates to the first codified normative acts of the Ancient Russia. As a result of this attempt to define the key stages of evolution of the institutions of the Russian criminal law, the author comes to a conclusion that there are two key periods, which are different in their length, but similar in their characteristics, the first being from the X century to the early XX century, the second being from 1917 to the current period. Due to the logic of legal development the first historically formed institutions of criminal law are the institutions on specific crimes, which is due to the urgent need for the list of prohibited acts and the list of punishments for their commission. The general institutions of criminal law appear later, when the science manages to achieve certain theoretical abstractions, some ideal provisions on crime and punishment. The article includes analysis of the works of the renowned Russian legal scholars throughout the period in question, which laid the grounds for the higher quality codification of legal materials. The author comes to a conclusion that the Russian legislation up to the middle of XX century did not know the period when all of the criminal law institutions were included into one codified act. However the centuries of experience of codification of legislation served as the basis for the development of scientific thought at the current stage.
