Abstract
The present study considers the problem of duplica-tion of identical text in normative legal acts from the standpoint of legal legal engineering. Such legal phenomenon as copying legal norms without any reference to the act used takes place at all levels of a law-making process (federal, regional, municipal). It is regarded by the author as the defect of the men-tioned process, since a state of some uncertainty arises for the law enforcement officer, there is viola-tion of competence in subjects of regulation and, accordingly, the effectiveness of law as a social reg-ulator decreases. Theoretical and legal judgments are illustrated by specific examples from lawmaking activities of various public authorities. It is conclud-ed that the reproduction of a normative text, even with references, is generally impractical, but it is acceptable mainly in municipal legal acts. The study substantiates proposals on improving the infor-mation and technical state of the Russian legal sys-tem.
