Opanashchuk Y. The legal consequences of non-compliance with the requirements of the law on notarization of contracts

The dissertation substantiates that the circumstances arising from the content of notarized transactions by virtue of their separate authenticity should be included among the facts that do not require proof in court proceedings. It is also argued that in order to avoid the collapse of the judiciary after the war, the validation of invalid transactions should be considered a separate case and - subject to all parties to the court within six months after the lifting of martial law - can be considered in a simplified (in writing). The paper substantiates that after and as a result of notarization of transactions a new level of their validity is provided - authenticity, which is also a determinant of the legitimacy of the mechanism of legal regulation, unconditional confirmation of legal facts and a guarantee of stability of civil circulation in general. In addition, it was found that the authenticity of the transaction, which is achieved after and as a result of notarization, is characterized by three verification criteria: 1) individualistic, which consists in the proper recording by the notary of the real intentions of the parties to the transaction and explaining to them the rights and legal consequences of such actions; 2) paternalistic, the essence of which is expressed in the official notarial control over the compliance of certified agreements with the requirements of applicable law; 3) authorizational, which by virtue of the notarial functions performed by the notary, includes an identification component for the participants in a particular transaction. Along with this, the understanding was improved that since the invalidation of a separate part of the transaction does not invalidate the entire transaction, the convalidation of part of the invalid transaction does not lead to the validity of the entire transaction. The author's periodization of the formation and development of the institute of notarization of deeds was developed, within which the following were identified: a) inseptic period (from the times of Kievan Rus to the 16th century); b) the foundation period (from the 16th century to 1917); c) the restriction period (from 1917 to 1963); d) the obligatory period (1963 - present). The conclusion about the special approach of the legislator to definition of civil-law consequences concerning the revealed shortcomings of the maintenance or the form of wills as unilateral transactions is formulated, namely: 1) convalidation of uncertified notarized wills is impossible (especially by virtue of Part 2 of Article 220 of the Civil Code of Ukraine), as it contradicts the very nature and essence of wills as unilateral transactions, but by analogy in exceptional cases may be carried out under Part 2 of Art. 219 of the Civil Code of Ukraine; 2) general civil consequences of non-compliance with the notarial form of transactions to wills are applied with some exceptions and are not always due to the invalidity of contracts; 3) certain civil law consequences of non-compliance of the will in form or content with the requirements of the law are not inherent in other types of transactions, notarization of which did not occur contrary to the requirements of the law. The definition of "marriage contract" as a civil law instrument of family law regulation of property relations between spouses (including ex-spouses), which is a special kind of civil law agreements of free type, designed to establish a joint partial ownership and / or joint shared ownership, and / or private property in respect of both the property belonging to the spouses before the marriage and the property acquired by them later during the joint residence with one family. The conclusions about the inexpediency of introducing the phraseological term "location" in the legal glossary to determine the location of a person or his property (its part) in the context of notarization of the transaction are specified.
