| Annotation | Administrative jurisdiction as an institute of administrative procedure law is provided for in the Code of Administrative Judicial Procedure of Ukraine. Administrative jurisdiction is of paramount significance not only for the administrative process but for the judicial system of Ukraine in general. However, so far the essence of this institute has been insufficiently defined. This article is aimed at forming of proposals for the development of unified generally accepted criteria designated to determine whether a certain dispute under public law falls within the administrative court jurisdiction, with the aim of ensuring the efficient protection of rights, freedoms and interests of individuals, rights and interests of legal entities, the exercise of the right to fair trial, and also with the aim of ensuring the uniformity of judicial practice and the stabile functioning of courts in the judicial system. It is turn, the issue of whether a specific dispute at public law belongs (or does not belong) to the administrative court jurisdiction, as well as whether it is possible to demarcate it from other types of judicial jurisdiction should be decided on the basis of the aggregate of existing external signs of relations at public law from which the dispute arose. By assessing the articles of the Code of Administrative Judicial Procedure of Ukraine as in force in 2005, it is easy to ascertain that the legislator has declared, in general terms, the criteria determining the administrative jurisdiction, and the limits and essence of the competence granted to administrative courts. However, such criteria do not allow coming to a definite conclusion about the type and nature of a specific dispute at public law. The contents of administrative jurisdiction have been supplemented – it covers the jurisdiction of subject matter, the jurisdiction of court system levels and the jurisdiction of territory (subjection to a jurisdiction). However, the criteria determining these types of jurisdiction remain essentially unchanged: subject matter of a dispute, subject (participant) of a dispute, court system level, place of residence (stay, location). The assumption is made that, in fact, the current problem of determining the administrative jurisdiction and its delimitation from other court jurisdictions will continue into the future. The primary explanation to this is that the existence of complex legal relations in different areas is disregarded; no uniform and generally accepted understanding has been developed with regard to the nature of all possible decisions, actions or omissions of subjects vested with power and the types of such subjects. There is a perception that the nature of legal relations and the type of judicial jurisdiction is determined by a legal result of those relations.
