Abstract

Faced with the developing practice of creating judicial doctrines, legal scholars are forced to admit one way or another that gaps, errors, omissions in legislative regulation can be filled and eliminated by courts through interpretation. In this regard, the question inevitably arises about the essential characteristics of interpretation, especially about the presence of law-giving properties in it. In other words, to what extent is the court free to adapt legislation in this way? Is his clarification of legal norms law-making? How can we assess the courts' change in the interpretation of the same norms? The question of the law-making activity of the courts arises equally both when resolving disputes in the gap zone and when choosing a method of interpreting the norms of legislation, which, as a rule, allow a fairly high degree of freedom of interpretation.

That is why it seems necessary to determine the creative and intellectual potencies of the interpretation of law. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to identify the ontological characteristics of understanding-clarification in the process of interpretation, analyze the relationship between interpretation and law enforcement, and trace the presence of volitional characteristics in interpretation in one form or another.

The article proposes to study the stated problem areas of interpretation through the prism of a dynamic approach and hermeneutical method, considering the legal text as a free and open structure.

The conclusions are formulated that the intellectual process of understanding and its connection with the application, the equivalence of opposite interpretations and the need to choose between them inevitably lead to a statement of the creative and volitional nature of the interpretation of law. In this regard, the establishment of rigid boundaries between interpretations and law-making, fixation on the statics of law and the immutability of the sense of legal norms, seems unjustified.
