Abstract:
Task: The purpose of this research is to examine the potential of legal presumptions as self-sufficient and effective means of overcoming legal gaps. The author explains the importance of the matter with the fact that sometimes legal gaps are not very obvious. Besides, formal application of law allows stating the lack of legal gaps in certain cases. However, this formal approach can conceal a number of legal matters that had not been taken into account by the legislator regarding this issue. This being said, legal gaps can actually be overcome through enforcement of law by using legal presumptions, explicitly or implicitly provided by law. Model: The research uses general scientific methods (functional and logical methods using analysis and synthesis), as well as specific legal methods (formal legal method, comparative legal method, etc.). Conclusions: In our opinion, legal presumptions can be used as effective means of overcoming legal gaps, and they also have a self-sufficient role. Legal presumptions can be effectively used at the moment until the discovered legal gap is directly filled, and their use usually does not raise doubts for law enforcement authorities. Scope of research: Due to his professional occupation, in this research the author examined relations under bankruptcy law. However, the author is convinced that similar cases can be resolved in other branches of law and legislation, which is confirmed by works of other scholars and experts. As examples, the article describes the presumption of lack of conflict regarding selection of a person representing the debtor’s members in bankruptcy proceedings and the presumption of the committee of creditors acting in the interests of all the debtor’s creditors. Originality/value: At the time of preparing this article the author had not discovered works specifically dedicated to the potential of legal presumptions as means of overcoming legal gaps. This research can be of interest to postgraduates, PhDs in Law and everyone who is interested in the issues of legal presumptions and overcoming legal gaps.
