Abstract: The subject of research is the rule of the law providing governmental regulation to ensure the administrativelaw treatment of commercial name and other means of identification of goods, work and services (trademark and service mark). As the research subject, the doctrinal provisions of the administrative, civil and information law were used, as well as the implementation practice of administrative-law methods of governmental regulation to ensure the protection of the means of identification of legal entities, goods, work and services, such as the commercial name, trademark and service mark. The methodological base is the combination of research method among which the leading role is played by the dialectical materialistic research method. The method of systematic analysis made it possible to identify the place of the means of identification in the system of exclusive rights which exist in law. The scientific novelty lies in the comprehensive generallegal analysis of the specifics of administrative-law regulation of the protection enjoyed by the means of identification. The article considers the legislative regulation of administrative-law methods used to ensure the treatment of holders of rights to the means of identification; it considers the registration treatment of the means of identification; it defies the administrative method of protecting the exclusive right to the commercial name, trademark and service mark, and describes the types of administrative responsibility for offences against the exclusive right to the means of identification.

Keywords: administrative-law regulation, protection, means of identification, commercial name, trademark, service mark, exclusive rights, registration actions, administrative law, law enforcement practice.

Abstract: The object of studies in this article involves social relations regarding legal regulation of recognition of proprietary title (including private property) to the underground construction objects in Russia, and first of all in its megalopolises. Before mining mineral resources, there is need for the survey and development of the deposit of mineral resources (open, underground, combined, or underwater means). Development of deposit with the open method is implemented from the land and includes strip mining and actual mining. Development by underground means includes underground digging, such as crossing, galleries, pit shafts, etc. The underground development mostly concerns preparatory work, excavation support, actual mining. However, without exploring the underground territories, which is implemented by the constructors of underground objects (underground constructions) it is not possible to mine mineral resources. In fact, an investor (a business) invests large money to preliminary and detailed exploration, including digging, use of deep pits, shallow mines and pit shafts, then underground drill holes, etc. All of those seemingly complementary preparatory important technological works guarantee the success in mining and excavation of mineral resources from the subsoil. The result of these preparatory technological works is quite specific. Object of underground construction serving the shafts and mines are built underground and they are in use for many years (usually the entire term of existence of the mining enterprise. They include cameras, tunnels (for transportation, utilities, special purpose, etc.), shaft insets, crosses, air pits, etc. All of these objects for the purpose of their more caring and economic use may be privatized and registered as property of natural persons and legal entities, which have built them and are using them. Another argument in favor of introduction of the regime of private property for underground buildings and constructions is the constant need for their repair and technical maintenance (including the technology for the lengthening of the life cycle of the used underground constructions), and only the owners would provide for them. The state often fails to efficiently manage underground objects, which due to their complicated character, working conditions and difficulties in access require scientifically substantiated and even unique repair technologies, and the state represented by its competent bodies often does not adequately provide for them. The article contains arguments in favor of legislative regulation of the possibility to privatize (to obtain public registration of property title) the objects of underground constructions in general, and, more specifically, in the megalopolises. The most efficient development of underground territory in the future shall be possible with the union between state and business, for which there shall be a legalized opportunity to register proprietary title to the underground construction objects, which shall serve as a sensible argument in favor of economic and careful attitude of the geological resources of our planet.

Abstract: T he article includes the arguments in favor of the legislative regulation of possible privatization (state registration of proprietary right) to the objects of underground construction, including those situated in metropolitan cities. The most efficient development of underground space in the future is possible if the state unites with the businesses, for which the legalized ability to gain proprietary rights to the objects of underground constructions, shall be one of forcible arguments for the economic and caring treatment of the geological resources of our planet.
