The article is sanctifed to the problem of understanding the concept «conflict of interest» and its characteristics in the legal positions of Administrative Court of Cassation as a part of Supreme Court of Ukraine. It is educed that such that such legal positions touch the correct definition of characteristics of private interest, potential and real conflict of interest, fnding out people who are subordinated to a person who is authorized to perform state or local self-government functions, and it can causes potential or real conflict of interest. In particular,in legal positions of Supreme Court explain that restricting the joint work of close people is a type of conflict of interest, because it causes a private interest from a person who is authorized to perform the functions of state or local self-government. It is important to note that close people are people who live together, have common life, mutual rights and duties. Setting only of living together of a person who is authorized to perform the functions of state or local self-government and a subordinated person does not mean that they are close people. So, relations of subordination do not mean that the conflict of interest is real in this situation. A potential or a real conflict of interest arises in a situation where a close person of a person who is authorized to perform the functions of state or local self-government does not work under his authority, but carries out person’s activities in the area of jurisdiction of the body in which this person works. Legal and social (private) relations which determine the emergence of property or non-property interest are important in determining the existence of private interest. Private interest can have the consequence both positive influence (a person has aspiration to thank and others like that) on a situation and negative (to inflict troubles and others like that). These legal positions can be used in bringing the guilty persons to administrative responsibility under the Code of Administrative Offenses.
