The purpose of Russian criminal proceedings, which is very important among the modern social and legal institutions, is nevertheless deficient in its legal and regulatory form. It is noted that in the modern situation, some formulations of the purpose of criminal proceedings have come into conflict with the real social and legal reality. Purpose: to resolve contradictions between the formulations of the purpose of criminal proceedings and the actual social and legal reality. Methods: the author uses the methods of dialectical and formal logic, comparison, description, observation, interviewing, experiment, analysis, interpretation. Results: a theoretical basis has been developed for the choice, in the event of a conflict between the formulations of the purpose of criminal proceedings and the actual social and legal situation, of whether to change the normative formulation of the purpose of criminal proceedings or whether to change the procedure itself. In choosing the subject of reform, preference is given to traditional Russian values. Modern trends in Russian criminal proceedings do not fully reflect the needs of civil society in the Russian Federation. It is more accurate to assume that this is the result of a system of departmental and bureaucratic measures to distribute influence and burden. From a humanitarian standpoint, it would be more correct to return the criminal justice system to a state where it will again reflect the lost purpose, in particular, protecting individuals from unlawful accusations. The first step should be to remove from law enforcement officials the obligation to be unilateral in the examination of evidence and to represent only one party – the accusation (Chapter 6 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation), as well as to remove the normative prohibition for the preliminary investigation and inquiry bodies to gather evidence defending the accused (Part 2 article 15 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation).

The authors study the controversial issues of termination of a criminal case (criminal prosecution) on the condition of voluntary compensation for the damage caused by the crime by the suspect (accused) during the preliminary investigation. The thesis is proved that in Russian criminal proceedings the procedure for voluntary compensation for damage caused by a crime is quite clearly regulated, and if the suspect (accused) voluntarily compensated for the property damage caused, then their actions will be evaluated within the current legal framework, when the fact of compensation for damage creates grounds for exemption from criminal liability and termination of the criminal case (criminal prosecution) in accordance with Articles 75, 76, 761, 762 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, Articles 25, 251, 28, 281 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

The article examines the ambiguity in the interpretation of article 76.2 of the Criminal code and article 25.1 of the Criminal procedure code of the Russian Federation to establish terms of compensation for the damage and (or) smoothing caused by the crime harm. The author substantiates the argument about the fallacy of considering this condition only formally, the author focuses on the mandatory establishment in this case of the characteristics of the identity of the guilty person and the measure of public danger of the committed act. The scientific novelty of the article lies in the approach proposed by the author to the study of the problem of establishing such a condition. In particular, the author considers it essential to solve such a problem to study the legal nature of compensation for damage and compensation for damage when a criminal case (criminal prosecution) is terminated on this basis. The author defines the specifics, identifies the main purposes of such a legal phenomenon in the context of a legal problem. The article concludes that if the preliminary investigation body and (or) the court (justice of the peace) the lack of property harmful consequences from the crime, the failure to make reparation is not to be considered as an obstacle to the termination of criminal proceedings on the grounds provided by article 25.1 of the Criminal procedure code of the Russian Federation, article 76.2 of the Criminal code of the Russian Federation. As a conclusion, the scientific work has prepared a specific text of the interpretation of the condition in the relevant explanations of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, which will exclude ambiguity on this issue from the law enforcement officer.

The subject of this research is the criminal law provisions on notes as a component of legislative technique and their importance for achieving such goals.

Special attention is given to the only note from the General Part of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation – note to Article 73, which pertains to the institution of conviction record. The goal of this work is to determine the essence and importance of the note for the development of criminal law norms dedicated to the institution of conviction record. The methodological framework of this research is comprised on the general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, comparison), formal-legal and systematic methods, as well as the relevant case law. As a result, the author formulates the definition of the concept of notes, indicates its correlation with the criminal law norm, lists the basic types of notes used in criminal law, and describes their role. The analysis of the provisions of the Article 73 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and the notes to the Article 73 revealed the new problems in legislative regulation of suspended sentence and conviction records, which prompted the author to explore these issues and offer solutions. Clarification is given to the definition of “convicts” provided in the Paragraphs “a” and “a.1” of the Part 1 of the Article 73 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Substantiation is given to the role of convict record as a separate circumstance that prevents imposition of suspended sentence. The author indicates the fact of various interpretation of the concept of “crimes against sexual integrity of minors” mentioned in the note to the Article 73 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and in the construct of the qualifying element for a number of offences of the Article 18 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, as well as substantiates inexpediency of unification of this definition.

This article focuses on the resolution of issues and difficulties legal professionals encounter when qualifying criminal acts under Item e.1 of Part 2 of Article 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Item e.1). The issues and difficulties appeared when the 1996 Criminal Code entered into force and still exist. They are associated with the absence of a legal definition of blood feud in the text of the Criminal Code and other federal statutes, and also with the fact that Decision No. 1 of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, On Judicial Practice in Murder Cases, of 27 January 1999, both in the previous and in the current versions, does not contain any comments and clarifications on the characteristics of Item e.1. The greatest difficulties in investigative and judicial practice appear when determining the subject of the given crime. For a long time, the question of what kind of subject of the crime - general or special - is the subject of the crime envisaged in Item e.1 (formerly Item k of Article 102 of the Criminal Code of the RSFSR) continues to be controversial and open in the Russian criminal law theory. The author of the article has made a comprehensive critical analysis of the points of view, opinions, and approaches available in the criminal law doctrine regarding the definition of the type of subject in Item e.1 - murder motivated by blood feud; this has an important qualification value and directly affects the legal assessment of the criminal act provided for in this item. The article presents and examines the doctrinal provisions, court decisions, and norms of criminal law in terms of determining the type of subject of murder motivated by blood feud. The author proposed, explained, and scientifically substantiated a uniform approach to the definition of the subject in Item e.1; this approach can order the Russian law enforcement practice and resolve all the problems. The author also formulated conclusions supported by arguments and reasons. The conclusions confirm the correctness of the scientific and legal approach, according to which the subject of the crime envisaged in Item e.1 is special and should belong to a group of population which cultivates the custom of blood feud.

The interest in digital development and the specifics of its legal regulation does not practically affect the problems of applying the provisions of Chapter 28 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and the qualifications of acts falling under the definition of «cybercrimes against property» and Art. 272 and Art. 273 in particular. Analyzing a judicial decision, the author on a practical example reveals the main qualification problems that currently exist in the judicial practice. The author states that the outdated and overly detailed definition «computer information» which is given in the note to Art. 272 of the Criminal Code, leads to the fact that the rules of law, in which this term is included, are applied erroneously. Considering how the perception of the meaning of dispositions of Art. 272, 273 and 159.6 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in cases of committing a crime in a virtual dimension, the author reveals the interdependence of the technical component of the subject of the crime and the place of its commission with the legal regulation of protected public relations and their external perception by the law enforcer. The article offers recommendations on the maximum elimination of possible errors in qualifications and shows on specific examples which particular signs and elements in the mechanism of a specific act affect the formation of erroneous law enforcement practice.
