In general and sectoral legal sciences, the problems of the legal process have become widespread due to the relevance of the ongoing update of virtually all areas of the legal life of the country. At the same time, the theory of the legal process has not been finally formed; issues of the essence, content, types, form, etc. of the legal process, one of the types of which is the coordination legal process, which has not yet been sufficiently studied, including in the mechanism of procedural and legal regulation, remain insufficiently studied. Based on doctrinal approaches to the study of the legal process as a whole, the essence and content of one of its types – the coordination process – have been determined; its features have been identified, indicating that the essence of the coordination process lies in the normatively established legal activity of its subjects and participants aimed at resolving legal cases. In turn, the content of the coordination process includes the activity itself, a special composition of subjects, stages, final documents, etc. A variant of definition of the concept of the coordination legal process as a procedural-procedural normatively defined activity of its subjects and participants, aimed at resolving legal cases through coordinated interaction, as well as issuing (adopting) mandatory procedural-legal acts (documents) of a protective or regulatory nature is proposed.

The evolutionary development of digital technologies and robotization of most areas of human activity have had a great impact on global aviation, forming new types of aircraft and scenarios for their use. With the start of a special military operation, the number of procedural actions related to the inspection of unmanned aerial vehicle crash sites has increased significantly. The analysis of investigative action protocols shows that current law enforcement officers do not always have a clear idea of what unmanned aerial vehicles are, what design they may have, which of their elements are objects of forensic interest, and what specifically should be reflected in the crime scene inspection protocol. In this regard, it becomes necessary to turn to the study of the tactics of inspecting unmanned aerial vehicle crash sites. Understanding the breadth and comprehensiveness of this problem, the authors of this article focused on the study of the investigator's work algorithm at the crash site of unmanned aerial vehicles. In the main part of the work, the authors disclosed the following issues: features of the use of unmanned aerial vehicles in criminal activity and classification of traces at the place of their discovery; typical investigative situations that develop at the initial stage of the investigation of crimes related to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles; the sequence and features of the inspection of the crash sites of unmanned aerial vehicles.

The final part provides general recommendations for the inspection, as well as further forensic examination of parts, fragments and cargo of unmanned aerial vehicles found at the scene of the incident.

This publication examines the genesis and development trends of voluntary health insurance. The institute of voluntary medical insurance seems to be relatively new in modern law, which is due to political, economic and social factors.

At the same time, the historical prototypes of this institute can be defined as quite old. Historically, the first form of medical insurance was compulsory medical insurance. Accordingly, the emergence of voluntary medical insurance occurred due to the development of compulsory medical insurance. In turn, it follows from this that the analysis of the development of the institution under study must be carried out in conjunction with the consideration of the process of development of the institute of medical insurance in general. The argument in favor of this point of view is also that both compulsory and voluntary medical insurance are interrelated and complementary elements of a single system of providing medical care.
