THE CONCEPT OF MINOR OFFENCES AS A PROBLEM OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW
The article examines the concept of minor offences in administrative law and the problems of its application in practice. This suggests ways to address the conflicts and gaps caused by regulatory deficiencies in this area. The author proposes that article 2.9 of the Code of Administrative Offences of the Russian Federation be specified in order to prevent abuse of the right and unnecessary subjectivity in the consideration of specific cases. It is proposed to limit the stages during which the rules of minor offences may be applied as well as the articles of such offences; to establish by law the main signs of minor offences: existence of an offence, absence of substantial danger and harm, Low social danger of the act, the fact that the person has committed an offence, etc.
