Abstract

According significant change in Article 26 of the Federal Law “On Limited Liability Companies”, there is a need to comprehend the new legal possibilities provided for the provisions of charter on withdrawal from the company, and to understand how the new provisions relate to the doctrine approaches to the legal nature of withdrawal from a limited liability company.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the legal nature of withdrawal from a limited liability company. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to identify whether the constitutional right of freedom of association restricts the existence of limited liability companies whose charters do not provide for the right to withdraw from the company; compare the right to withdraw from the company with the unilateral renunciation of the contract and the protection of civil rights and to identify the differences of these legal phenomena; to analyze the legal possibilities provided by the law for regulating withdrawal from the company by the company's charter, to determine their compliance with the legal structure of withdrawal from the company.

Formal-logical and dogmatic methods were used in the research process. The structural and functional method made it possible to determine the purpose of options for regulating the right to withdraw from a company. Methods of teleological interpretation and system analysis were used to identify the purpose of the institution of withdrawal from society.

Conclusion: the existence of other legal possibilities for termination of participation in a company (alienation of a share by making a transaction) leads to the fact that the existence of the right to exit does not restrict the freedom of participation in the association. The authors express a critical attitude to the consideration of the right to leave company as a way to protect the rights of company members, believing that it is possible to protect a equitable right only if it is violated or a threat of violation is created. In order to exercise the right to withdraw from a company, a violation of equitable right is not required as a condition.
