Abstract

The issue of alimony obligations enforcement is quite acute in our country. It is necessary to recognize that Russian legislation does not contain effective mechanisms for collecting funds from parents for the maintenance of minor children. The article reveals the legal nature of consequences of non-payment of funds for the maintenance of minor children by their parents from the point of view of ratio of private and public interests in the mechanism of legal regulation. The authors note the prerequisites and limits of shifting the balance of private and public interests in the study of grounds for applying criminal liability measures for non-payment of alimony.
