On amendments to certain acts of the Russian President
Although (act) can sound a bit funny here, it is correct. Depending on how literal your translation is required to be, you can also use the word statutes interchangeably.

: Если бы все акты были указами, то это слово и было бы использовано автором. Не надо переводить то, чего в тексте нет, и избегать очевидного без каких-либо веских причин.

Миша, отвечаю по-русски. Вряд ли Вы предполагаете, что я не знаю,что такое act в юридической терминологии, а также что этого не знает опытный переводчик-Аскер. Но мы не имеем дело ни с законом, ни с подзаконным актом. Это мне немного напомнило нашу первую встречу по поводу Joinder and Severance:-). Я прекрасно понимаю его сомнения и у меня здесь претензии и к русским авторам. По сути, здесь требуется "дженерик" для "документов". Нельзя назвать как угодно, а потом иметь дело с основным текстом, который назван "Указом" и конкретно говорит только об "указах". И наконец, на мое ухо certain acts by the President однозначно звучит как "некоторые действия со стороны", во всяком случае при первом, автоматическом восприятии.
4505.18 Prohibited acts.
(A) No person shall do any of the following:
(1) Operate in this state a motor vehicle for which a certificate of title is required without having that certificate in accordance with this chapter or, if a physical certificate of title has not been issued for a motor vehicle, operate the motor vehicle in this state knowing that the ownership information relating to the vehicle has not been entered into the automated title processing system by a clerk of a court of common pleas;
