Abstract:

This article notes insufficient legislative regulation and the unresolved issue of the legal nature of legally significant communication and its purpose in the system of civil law norms and principles. The author considers the current theories related to the definition of the legal nature of a legally significant communication, analyzes the approaches used by scientists in the formation of these theories, in view of which he concludes that they do not meet the challenges of modernity and the intended purpose of the norm of the Article 165.1 of the RF Civil Code . Of the theories presented, the author believes, the perception of a legally significant communication as a special legal action (act) better reflects the reality. In answering what is a legally significant communication in addition to the action as such, the author identifies a number of functions (principles) that this institution is endowed with, believing that this will serve as a basis for further research of the topic.
