The article specifies the legal nature of liability in commercial litigation, defines the ratio of measures of procedural coercion and liability in commercial litigation. Based on the analysis, a conclusion was made about the inexpediency of combining the measures of responsibility provided by the Commercial Procedural Code of Ukraine into an independent type of legal liability. The expediency of separating the category "Responsibility in commercial litigation" is argued. It is noted that the purpose of such liability is to comply with the procedural order of commercial proceedings under the threat of criminal, administrative, civil, disciplinary liability. Liability in commercial litigation includes all types of liability that are realized in connection with the implementation of such litigation: criminal, administrative, disciplinary liability of judges, lawyers, prosecutors, civil liability. Measures of such responsibility may have as their normative source not only the Commercial Procedure Code, but also the Criminal Code of Ukraine, the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses, the Commercial Code, the Civil Code. It is noted that liability in commercial litigation is a complex legal institution. It is specified that measures of procedural coercion and liability in commercial litigation are forms of state coercion. Procedural coercion has a wider scope than liability in commercial litigation. The signs of procedural coercion in commercial litigation are specified: implementation regardless of the will of the subject to which they are applied; application by the court; implementation in connection with the implementation of legal proceedings in a particular case; ensuring the implementation of the tasks of commercial litigation; in some cases it is an unfavorable consequence of violation of the requirements of the legal norm (disposition), ie in connection with the implementation of dispositions of legal norms, in other cases it is the implementation of dispositions of legal norms that establish certain restrictions to ensure proceedings.
The article has substantiated the process of the de facto replacement of the right of private property by the rights of use; distinguished stages in the development of the private property institution in Ukraine; specified grounds for the emergence and termination of the right of private property and the rights of use; refined sense and scope of responsibility of the private owner and the holder;identified the main instrument of substitution of the right of private property by the rights of use; traced preconditions for passing inconsistent judgements on property protection by the ECHR; and analyzed possible consequences of further substitution of the right of private property by the rights of use. Regard to findings of the study it was considered about instability of the private property institution; identity between unofficial grounds for the termination of the right of private property and unofficial grounds for the emergence of the rights of use; existence of the direct threat to owner status in Ukraine; absence of legal grounds for increasing the sense of owner responsibility, including taxation of the private property; transformation of the feudal law into the modern rights of use combined with the right of possession; possibility of establishing a real type of polity and prospects for its development by ways of regulation of the ownership relations. The article has also considered about creating preconditions for restoring the feudal law and replacing democratic polity by a monarchy in Ukraine and other countries owing to severe restrictions on the right of private property, above all, through taxation of the privateproperty, and its de facto replacementby the rights of use.
The author of the article presents a comparative legal analysis of trade secret and industrial property regimes. Based on the analysis, the following distinctive features of legal regimes of trade secrets and industrial property are identified. The legal regime of industrial property provides strict criteria for the qualification of certain innovations as inventions, utility models, industrial designs. On the contrary, any commercially valuable innovations can be protected in the mode of trade secret. The legal regime of industrial property is a legal monopoly, as it provides the receipt of a security document (patent, declaratory patent). The trade secret regime is provided by a de facto monopoly, as it is ensured by the application of certain protective measures. The regime of industrial property rights presupposes the existence of both personal non-property and property exclusive rights. The trade secret regime provides only exclusive property rights. It has been identified that a common issue for both industrial property rights and trade secrets is the controversial application of "binding clauses" in licensing agreements, as they are contrary to the rules of fair competition. It is noted that the use of trade secrets to protect innovations is appropriate at the stage of development, mass production. When commercializing innovations, it is advisable to apply the regime of industrial property rights.
