Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the content and functions of the constitutional principle of good faith in municipal legal relations. Based on an analysis of the legal nature of local self-government, the status of participants in municipal legal relations and the legal positions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, the list of functions of the principle of good faith in the municipal sphere has been clarified. The thesis is substantiated that within the framework of municipal legal relations, the principle of good faith, in addition to specifying, complementing, correcting and limiting functions, also performs a compensatory function aimed at protecting the obviously weaker party in order to ensure constitutional requirements for the balance of rights and legitimate interests of the parties in legal relations. The manifestations of the specifying function of the principle of good faith in the sphere of municipal legal relations have been studied. The analysis of the functions of the principle of good faith and materials from law enforcement practice allowed us to formulate certain criteria for the good faith of local government bodies and officials.
