Specific Issues of the Resolving of the Internal and Cross-Border
 Conflict of Laws in the United States of America

Abstract

Introduction. The relevance of the article is due to the development of cross-border trade relations with the participation of residents of the United States of America and other states, in particular, and interest in questions about the correct choice of the applicable law in the framework of legal relations with the participation of US residents carried out in the territory or under the jurisdiction of the United States. Purpose. The author aims to consider the basic concepts, as well as some features of resolving conflicts arising between the provisions of federal law, the laws of certain states with the laws of other states, as well as, in some cases, with international law. Methodology. In the framework of the study, the author used various methods, in particular, the dialectical method, methods of analysis, synthesis, the formal legal method, the comparative legal method, as well as the method of interpretation of legal acts and judicial precedents. Results. The author examined the features of conflict resolution in accordance with statutory legislation, judicial precedents, as well as US doctrinal sources. The author provides the basic concepts regarding conflict law, which contain the main approaches to resolving the conflict of various jurisdictions in the United States. Conclusion. Based on the results of the study, the author concludes that even if there are separate (special) legal acts, court cases, as well as doctrinal sources that, it would seem, should help overcome conflicts between different legal systems, given the diversity of legal relations, such collisions will arise in the future, which will push lawmakers to further develop issues of US conflict law.
