The author discusses the issue of the interpretation of the term «legal expertise of legal acts», which is widely used in modern legal practice and legislation.The lack of a federal legal definition allows theorists and practitioners to interpret legal knowledge differently.As a result,the term «legal expertise of legal acts» describes a wide range of activities, while some are completely unrelated.Taking into account specificpractices in lawenforcement and rule-making,the author concludes that the term «legal expertise» refers to at least two primary categories of activities: expertise in researching draft laws to enhance the efficacy of legal regulation generally and control examination, which ensures the execution of public authorities’rule-making function and aims to preserve the consistency and systematicity of legislation.The article is an attempt to distinguish these types of activities according to such parameters as: the boundaries of expert analysis within the frameworkof legal examination,the subject composition of legal examination, methodologies for conducting legal examination, and, finally, the formalization of the results and legal consequences of legal examination.
