One of the effective methods stipulated by the legislation, which ensures the implementation of judicial decisions, is by establishing a distinct mechanism for securing rights during administrative proceedings. This mechanism, referred to as “preliminary protection of rights,” operates separately from the method used to secure claims. The latter method is applicable only to three specific types of claims and does not extend to dispute claims. Notably, this study focuses on the suspension of administrative acts as a unique form of preliminary protection. It sheds light on the distinctions between this suspension and the general claim securing process. Furthermore, it underscores legislative strategies, identifies legal gaps in the current framework, and suggests legal remedies. The research explores the differences between suspending the execution of an administrative act and suspending its operation. It emphasizes the necessity of empowering courts to employ protective measures while investigating the factual context of a case, guided by terms such as “significant damage,” “reasonable doubt,” and “ impossibility of rights protection.” The interpretation of these terms forms the foundation for suspending administrative acts. The investigation delves into varying interpretations of the term “impossibility” and advocates for uniformity in its application. It also delves into instances where immediate execution of administrative acts is mandated, both as a legal requirement and as a rationale for their swift execution by administrative bodies. This analysis considers the interplay between public and private interests in these scenarios. In this pursuit, the study draws insights from international practices, as well as domestic legislative and judicial experiences. It pinpoints legal gaps and introduces potential legal remedies within this framework.

This article examines the issues of current legal education through the prism of the ongoing processes of digital transformation. It is noted that legal education lags far behind digital needs and realities. In the light of the above, the author outlines the main directions for the development and improvement of legal education in order to train qualitatively new personnel, whose professional knowledge and skills will meet the current needs to the highest degree. The possibility of providing universities with appropriate highly specialized departments that train relevant personnel in the field of digital law is analyzed. The study of the experience of various universities suggests the need to revise the curricula of bachelor's and master's degrees with their subsequent adaptation to the ongoing processes of digitalization, namely, the provision of a number of disciplines related to the legal regulation of digital relations. Proposals are being made aimed at making changes to professional competencies, in particular, providing for such digital competence (subcompetence) as the ability to correctly apply the norms of substantive and procedural law in the field of digital rights of citizens.

The ideas of comparative jurisprudence in the ancient world were more prominently manifested in the works of the philosophers of Ancient Athens and the lawyers of Ancient Rome, according to Western scholars, it was here that not only comparative-legal ideas were formed for the first time but also, in practice for the first time, an attempt was made to subject the state and law to comparative research. In the Middle Ages, the ideas of comparative jurisprudence had a certain development based on the borrowing (reception) of Roman law, the formation and coordination of canon law, as well as national legal system (mainly) on the basis of customary law. Comparative legal studies continued throughout the Middle Ages, up to modern times, when Montesquieu, Hugo Grotius, Pufendorf, and others succeeded one another. In the new and modern period, comperative legal researches not only multiplied in therms of volume, but also took on a systematic nature and was gradually formed as an independent legal science.
