Chapter 3. Results of the interpretation of the law.

§ 1. Complete clarity of meaning is a necessary result of interpretation.

Any legal norm, no matter how clear and clearly formulated, needs to be interpreted, since it is closely linked to the constantly changing conditions of public life.

In the process of systematic interpretation, another norm can be found that regulates the same type of social relations. In this case, they say that there are conflicts between two or more legal acts that have one object of regulation. If there is a conflict between the rules, the following rules should be followed.

1) if the conflicting norms come from different norm-setting bodies, then the norm coming from a higher body is subject to application;

2) if the conflicting burrows come from the same body, then the rule issued later is subject to application.

A possible result of the use of all methods of interpretation may be the ambiguity of the legal norm (vagueness, insufficient accuracy of a word or expression, ambiguity of the norm, incompleteness of the legal norm, contradiction within the norm itself).

When interpreting an obscure rule, it is especially important to read its official normative explanation. But conclusions from additional materials should not contradict the text of the norm itself, should not eliminate the ambiguity of the norm by departing from its literal meaning. The criteria for the truth and correctness of interpretation are, ultimately, universal practice. More specific criteria include legal practice, language communication practice, and logical correctness.
