Abstract
The ability of a person to represent and protect his interests, and bear legal responsibility for committing administrative offenses and crimes, constitutes such a category as the legal personality. The article's purpose was to compare the legal personality of an offender and criminally punishable acts by the legislation of Ukraine and international legal acts.
For this purpose, the following tasks have been set: 1) the concept and components of such a category as "legal entity" were defined; 2) the peculiarities of the concept of administrative legal personality are clarified, the limits of the administrative legal personality of a person who has committed an administrative offense are determined; 3) the limits legal personality person who has committed a criminal offense are characterized.
The value of individual sources of the United Nations and the European Court of Human Rights for solving the specified tasks is clarified. Provisions are given that indicate that certain norms of Ukraine's national legislation do not correspond to the provisions of international law. This needs to be settled, because, for example, the right to a fair trial should be equal for everyone.
The legal personality within the limits of administrative and criminal proceedings carried out by the legislation of Ukraine does not differ. However, in the case of bringing a person to justice, it is necessary to evaluate different components of legal personality.
