Abstract

The article examines the features of administrative liability for violation of the organization and conduct of examinations in Ukraine. It is determined that the organization and conduct of the examination usually does not require the involvement of a wide range of persons. However, it should be noted that the concept of expertise is not always limited to forensic examination, which is usually appointed on the basis of a relevant court decision or other authorized body.

It was found that the general procedure for organizing and conducting examinations is defined at the level of a significant number of regulations and bylaws. Such legislation establishes the requirements for experts, the stated conclusions of the examination, the rights and responsibilities of experts, as well as the responsibility for violating the procedure for conducting examinations. However, the current Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses does not contain any administrative law on administrative liability for violation of the procedure for conducting examinations in Ukraine. Therefore, there is a need for such a study.

It is concluded that the priority actions to improve the institution of administrative liability for violation of the procedure for conducting and organizing examinations should be: first, the sphere of organization and conduct of non-judicial examinations needs legislative regulation; secondly, given that the current Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses does not contain any administrative law concerning liability for violation of the organization and conduct of examinations of both judicial and non-judicial, it is necessary to supplement the current Code of Administrative Offenses. 185-16, the following content, namely Violation of the order of organization and conduct of examinations, persons who are entrusted with the authority to organize and conduct examinations entails a fine of one hundred to two hundred non-taxable minimum incomes.

Keywords: examination, forensic examination, non-judicial examination, administrative responsibility, expert
