Theory Of Law

The authors use a communicative approach to the theory of law in their analysis of criminal procedure policy and its role in crime prevention. This approach allowed them to determine the content of criminal procedure work that lies outside the scope of criminal law. This content is its ability to regulate social conflicts of criminal law character. Within this framework, the criminal procedure is viewed as a platform for resolving social conflicts, the sides use it to resolve a conflict between them in socially acceptable ways in the process of communication. The involvement of the aggrieved party in the process of communication in connection with the crime intensifies the correctional impact of the criminal process and its significance for crime prevention. The authors suggest using simplified measures of criminal procedure law for reforming this process and basing it on the procedure of terminating a criminal case with the imposition of a court fine as a measure of criminal law influence. They suggest using the same approach when terminating a criminal case due to the reconciliation of the sides, with one exception: during the reconciliation of the sides, only grounds provided for in Art. 76 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation should be proven. If they are established, the investigator is obliged to petition to the court and the court, having established their validity, should decide to terminate the criminal case.

The institution of exemption from criminal liability with the imposition of a court fine, introduced in 2016 into the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, has become widespread in investigative and judicial practice. The relatively short period of its application shows the need to eliminate conflicts and gaps in the norms governing these criminal procedural relations. The author uses the scientific and practical approach to analyze the judicial practice of considering cases related to the exemption of the accused (suspected) from criminal liability on the specified basis and proposes ways to eliminate the identified defects of the criminal procedure law in the following way: (1) the procedure for considering a criminal case in case of non-payment of a court fine can be optimized by the legislator: if the suspect (accused) fails to pay the court fine, the latter can be replaced with compulsory work, which, within under Chapter 51.1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, should be considered as a measure of a criminal law nature; (2) the possibility of imposing a court fine after re-sending a criminal case to the court after fulfilling the requirements of Art. 446.5 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation may be legally limited; (3) the assessment of compensation for damage caused by the accused (suspect) should be objective, that is, it should be determined by the court on the basis of the investigated evidence and the factual circumstances of the case, not be solely related to the subjective position of the victim about partially compensating for damage; (4) the period for consideration of this type of cases should be increased to 20 days; (5) there are a number of other defects in the norms of the institution in question.

Railway Rolling Stock

The questions of qualification and investigation of theft of goods from the rolling stock are revealed. The main factors causing qualification of such crimes under articles 158, 159 and 160 of the Criminal code of the Russian Federation are investigated. The obligatory signs of crimes, such as time, place, means of commission of crime, the size of the stolen property are revealed. Reasonable conclusions are made that the qualification of theft of goods from the rolling stock of railway transport, as well as the definition of the circle of persons potentially involved in the commission of the crime, is largely influenced by the place and time of the crime, the circumstances (type of car, other features), the amount of stolen property, means of committing the crime. The analysis of the practice of qualification of thefts from the rolling stock of railway transport shows that in various investigative situations it is necessary to speak about its private varieties that will allow to qualify a crime more precisely and to organize the process of proving more effectively. It is concluded that for the most complete qualification of crimes related to the theft of cargo from rolling stock cars a thorough analysis of the circumstances that influenced the initiation of a criminal case, as well as investigative situations, is of particular relevance. Proposals were made to improve the norms of the criminal law.

Including the norms governing the institution of returning the case to the prosecutor in accordance with Art. 237 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation and determining the significance of this institution for the issuance of a legal, reasonable and fair sentence. In this regard, this article discusses the feasibility of expanding the list of unconditional grounds for canceling a sentence by including a violation associated with the failure of the court to take measures to return the criminal case to the prosecutor in accordance with Art. 237 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, if there are grounds for that.

The article is devoted to the practice of parole. The main goal of the study is to determine if is it properly to include a period of house arrest in six months term of imprisonment, necessary for the creation of the right to parole. The article proves that in practice they judge from the following conclusion: as the period of house arrest is included in the period of detention, and the detention period is included in the term of imprisonment, so when a real served term for parole is determined it is necessary to include in it the period of house arrest. The author explains that such conclusion is flawed since it is based on a dogmatic rather than systemic interpretation of the Criminal Code and the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation without understanding the role which plays set by the legislator six months term in case of parole in the system of criminal law measures.

Pre-requisites of the research are the establishment of cassation courts of general jurisdiction in Russia, as well as no clear procedure in the Russian Federation Criminal Procedure Code for returning criminal cases to the prosecutor by the cassation court upon the grounds causing the impaired position of the convict (or acquitted person). The research purpose is to formulate requirements based on the principle of justice to the legal institute of returning criminal cases to the prosecutor by the cassation court for circumstances showing the need to impair the position of the convict (or acquitted person). The Methods are abstraction, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, modeling, ascending from abstract to concrete. The article substantiates that the grounds to return a criminal case to the prosecutor provided for in the Russian Federation Criminal Procedure Code causing remission of a sentence under a cassation procedure represent a type of material breaches of criminal procedure law that affect the outcome of the case. When such circumstances cause an impaired position of the convict (or acquitted person), they must comply with the requirements of justice.
