The Issue of Delimiting Jurisdiction between Arbitrazh Courts and General Jurisdiction Courts in Cases Involving Administrative Offenses

The paper examines the problems of jurisdiction of courts in administrative cases arising when legal entities carry out activities directly related to their commercial activity. The author justifies the conclusion that Article 30.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation contradicts Arts. 46, 47 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. Despite the fact that the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation made attempts to fill the gap, on the basis of specific examples the author concludes that the problem of delimitation of jurisdiction between arbitrazh courts and courts of general jurisdiction for considering claims brought by legal entities against decisions of administrative bodies still exists and an ordinary interpretation of the norms of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation in their systematic relationship with the provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation, Administrative Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, decisions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated 24 March 2005 No. 5, the Review of Judicial Practice dated 24 December 2014 (approved by Presidium of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation) does not comply with the norms of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and fundamental international legal acts in the field of ensuring the right to judicial protection.
