Anonymous Shell Companies as a tool for economic criming such as forgery, fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, terrorist financing, etc. have become widely developed in Iranian recent years and this has not only affects the country's judicial system;But also has led to disruptions in the country's tax system, the banking system, and the customs system. It has led to a decrease in public trust in the government,too. Undoubtedly, this emergence and expansion is due to the weakness of the system of observation, identification and supervision of all kinds of commercial companies and the Companies Registry System as the only organization that is specially related to the information of commercial companies can play a major role in dealing with the emergence of these companies. Therefore, this question can be raised that what problems in the Companies Registry System have caused the development of Anonymous Shell Companies and what solutions are there to solve these weaknesses.This research, with a descriptive-analytical method, based on desk researches and documentary studies, firstly identifies the concept and structure of Anonymous Shell Companies. Then the reasons for occurance and development of Anonymous Shell Companies have been investigated from the point of view of the Companies Registry System and after recognition of the registration system’s gaps in dealing with Anonymous Shell Companies, it provides solutions to solve the current problems.

Country's chaos regarding car accidents, Justifies the necessity of growing attention and importance of preventive measures of these offences, and makes this issue known as a major concern. This also reveals the necessity of interactive (non-criminal) preventive measures with respect to traffic crimes and violations. Situational prevention or situation oriented, as the most moderate, possessing the most widespread measures, is considered as an effective non-criminal prevention pattern and based on the statistics given by official organizations, it has a tremendous impact on the reduction of crimes and violation in different countries. In proportion to scientific and technological developments, different situational preventive measures have been updated, and due to their consistency, they can be applied in traffic violations and offences. On one hand, the analysis of suggested measures in the framework of situational prevention and on the other hand, statutory criminal policy pathology and some other practical plans linked with this kind of prevention of the offences and traffic violations are the main purposes of this article. In the sphere of Iran's statutory criminal policy "The law of compulsory insurance for damages inflicted to third parties arising from an accident of vehicles" and "The law of adjudication of traffic violations are the most important legal sources that their analysis shows that most of the components and enforcement measures either have not been predicted or their enforcement process have not been codified even in the form of by-laws, or they are far from the situational technics and criteria over them. Unfortunately, the legislature has taken situational prevention aspects into consideration only in few cases of its statutory criminal policy, although this matter is significant: the practical potentials of situational prevention has been restricted to nominal and brief dimensions. Besides, the guarantee of situational prevention approach in the society needs systematization of the variety of adopted situational measures.

Prevention and management of conflict of interest in the judicial system is one of the ways to reduce corruption in both judicial and political-administrative system. Different countries often anticipate and control conflicts of interest in justice system. Countries like the Islamic Republic of Iran, the United States of America and the United Kingdom each have some laws and regulations in their legal system. By comparing the approach of the mentioned countries, it can be concluded that the early identification of the concept of conflict of interest by the United States and Great Britain, has led to drafting, adopting and enforcing the laws much earlier in regard to Iran. Thus the conflict of interest in the judicial system of these countries has been decreasing. Judicial and public officials have also had a great deal of interest in managing conflicts of interest by knowing and understanding this issue. But in Iranian legal system, the independent concept of conflict of interest has not yet succeeded in finding its proper position in the laws. As a result, the country has not witnessed a significant process of managing conflicts of interest in the judicial system. Nonetheless, disparate laws and regulations that involve preventing and combating conflicts of interest have failed to provide effective management of conflicts of interest in the absence of some of the key elements in managing this issue, such as declaring assets or supporting effective disclosures. The lack of comprehensive legislation and the effective and transparent implementation of existing laws, bring more to the current problems of conflict management in the justice system.
