ABSTRACT

Introduction. The requirement to establish the limits of legal regulation arises in the implementation of various types of legal activities, such as law-making, interpretive and lawenforcement ones. A special place in setting the limits of legal regulation in the interpretation activity is occupied by the highest judicial courts – the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation and the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. The aim of the research: to identify the peculiarities and significance of setting the limits of legal regulation in the interpretation activity of higher courts. The methods of research: general scientific (analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, abstraction, analogy, system-structural, etc.) and private-scientific (comparative-legal, formal-legal, method of interpretation of legal norms, etc.). Results. The setting of the limits of legal regulation in the interpretative activity carried out by the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation and the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation has its own peculiarities both in relation to law-making activity and in relation to each other. The peculiarities of setting the limits of legal regulation in this type of activity of the highest judicial courts are their secondary nature and form of reflection (interpretative acts with normative content).Secondary defines the specificity of the criteria, which will differ significantly from the criteria for identifying and setting the limits of legal regulation in lawmaking activities. In the activities of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the criteria for establishing the limits of legal regulation are constitutional and legal values and (or) principles, while in the activities of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation - exclusively the principles of law as they are enshrined and reflected in the current legislation. The requirement to establish the limits of legal regulation in the interpretative activity is conditioned by uncertainty as one of the properties of law and can be expressed in two forms: positive and negative. The vision of the limits of legal regulation by the highest judicial instances is important for both the legislator and the law enforcer.
