The article estimates the prospects of the introduction of Russian Institute of investigating judges. Along with the assessment of current proposals to reform the criminal procedural law, in relevant part, the author is invited to consider the very feasibility of creating a new form of judicial control over pre-trial proceedings. It is proposed to consider the essence of criminal procedural law, its purpose as the establishment of «rules of the game» in criminal proceedings. It is noticed that exhaustively for the law to all possible practical situation is impossible, and the law itself may become a formal justification for malfeasance. Therefore, to avoid the appear- ance of unlimited repression of the state is necessary to disseminate the legal mechanism for binding rules of morality. As well as the activities of the judicial and law enforcement is not only connected to social and justified response to the crime, but also to damage (or «lesser evil» (greater evil - the consequences of the offense)) the interests of a particular person, subject to criminal liability is required to establish unspecified restrictions for the officials concerned. Therefore, the author answers the question of the admissibility of the institute investigating judges by addressing the possibility of establishing for the judge personally responsible for the prospects which began with his participation prosecution.

The article deals with the problem of specialist’s participation in the scene examination, which is carried out before entering information into the Unified Register of the pre-trial investigations. The essence of the problem is that the current criminal procedural law of Ukraine recognizes the specialist’s participation only in the pre-trial investigation, the litigation and the proceedings in the case of the commission of an unlawful act under the law of Ukraine on criminal liability. Part 1 of Article 71 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine states that a specialist in criminal proceedings is a person who has special knowledge and skills and can provide advice and conclusions during the pre-trial investigation and trial on issues that require appropriate special knowledge and skills. In other cases, the specialist has no procedural status. In addition, Part 1 of Article 237 of the CPC of Ukraine «Examination» states that the examination is conducted to identify and record information on the circumstances of the offense commitment. It is an act provided by the law of Ukraine on criminal liability. However, there are the cases in the investigation, when a report is received, for example, about a person's death, other events with formal signs of the offense, which must first be checked for signs of a crime, and only then the act can be considered as offense. In this case, a specialist takes part in the scene examination. However, the current criminal procedure law in accordance with Part 1, Article 71 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine determines the legal status of a specialist only as the participant in criminal proceedings. The paragraph 10, part 1 of Article 3 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine defines the criminal proceedings as pre-trial investigation and court proceedings or procedural actions in the case of the commission of an unlawful act. Therefore, when the inspection of the scene is based on the uncertain status of the event (there is no clear information that the event contains signs of an offense), the specialist’s participation is not regulated by law. The authors propose to consider the specialists as «experienced persons» in cases mentioned above and to include their advices to the protocol of the scene examination, as the advices of other scene examination participants.

The principle of the pacta sun servanda agreement stating that the agreement made by the parties to the agreement, will be the law for both, remains in force and becomes the main hope in the law of the agreement. But the agreement that provides fiduciary guarantees under the hand cannot be executed. The execution process must be carried out by submitting a lawsuit to the Negri Court through normal procedural law so that the court's ruling decreases. This paper aims to analyze or examine the legal arrangements for the taking of movable objects as objects of leasing financing and criminal liability for the actions of taking movable objects as objects of leasing financing. The results of this study indicate that criminal policies against financial institutions in the execution of fiduciary guarantees by debt collectors who have changed hands under the law number 42 of 199 concerning fiduciary guarantees to ensure legal certainty are made akata by the notary public and registered with the fiduciary office. Law enforcement against leasing parties in withdrawing fiduciary collateral by debt collectors based on law number 42 of 1999 concerning fiduciary explains that the right of execution is the authority of the court, not the authority of the seller of debt collection services that are usually leased by the leasing party.

The proof is the most important stage in settlement of a case in court because it aims to prove that a particular legal event or relationship has been made as a basis for a lawsuit. Through the burden of the proof stage, the judge will get the bases to decide between settling a case. Nevertheless, the burden of proof regulation remains plural. There are even some regulations which regulate not only the material law but also the formal law. Such a situation affects the achievement of order and legal certainty in law enforcement efforts. As is known, the nature of the procedural law is formal law, namely the law concerning the rules of the game in settlement of disputes through the court, and is binding on all parties and cannot be deviated. That is why procedural law has a public nature. For the certainty of law, therefore, the procedural law must be in the codification form of unification nature so that it can generally apply to and binding on all parties. Therefore, it is necessary to reform the civil procedural law that is codified and nationally applicable.

Definition Of

The article considers the peculiarities of the legislative regulation of the institution of judicial control in the criminal process of Ukraine. The authors who paid attention to the research of this institute of criminal procedural legislation, the purpose of the research are determined. In particular, as a result, the definition of judicial control as an independent institution of procedural law has been clarified, taking into account both recent changes in procedural legislation and taking into account current changes. It is pointed out the imperfection of certain terms of the procedural law, which, among other things, affect the content of the institution of judicial control. The inconsistency of the content of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine with the principles that preceded its adoption was emphasized. A gap in the procedural law has been identified, which consists in the lack of regulation of the actions of officials of the prosecution in the event of a court decision such as returning the indictment to the prosecutor as not meeting the requirements of the law. A comparative analysis of the criminal procedural norms that regulated the institution of additional investigation during the CPC of the USSR, with the rules that give the court the right to return the indictment to the prosecutor as one that does not meet the requirements of the law. The procedural powers of the investigating judge outside the stage of pre-trial investigation in criminal proceedings have been defined, and their inadequacy to restore the constitutional rights of a person, which could potentially be violated, has been criticized. The constitutional prescriptions that define human and civil rights are analyzed, their implementation is assessed in terms of the problem covered; It is concluded that the requirements of the Criminal Procedure Law do not comply with the Constitution of Ukraine, in particular, attention is focused on the possibility of restricting the constitutional rights of a person in the absence of an effective mechanism for their renewal. The conclusion was made on the basis of the analysis of constitutional norms and doctrine of law with regard to the definition of justice. Certain provisions of the law have been criticized, and suggestions for their improvement have been made. As a result, it is proposed to define judicial control as a direct verification by an investigating judge of the legality and validity of decisions, actions or omissions of the prosecution and other state bodies in criminal proceedings.

The purpose of the article is to define the prosecutor's supervision over investigative (search) actions as a legal guarantee of human rights, as well as problematic issues in its implementation and to make proposals to improve the current criminal procedure legislation of Ukraine. The article defines doctrinal approaches to the concepts of "prosecutor's supervision over compliance with the law during the pre-trial investigation" and "prosecutor's procedural guidance of the pre-trial investigation" in the context of investigative (search) actions. The author came to the conclusion that the provisions of the Constitution of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine "On the Prosecutor's Office" and the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine in terms of regulating the functions and powers of the prosecutor during the pre-trial investigation. Based on the study, it is proposed to consider procedural guidance as one of the forms of prosecutor's supervision over the pre-trial investigation, which is implemented directly by the prosecutor or a group of prosecutors who are appointed to carry it out in a particular criminal proceeding. The author also emphasizes the existence of forms of supervision of the highest level prosecutor on the legality of these actions, which are implemented through the demand and study of information on the progress and results of pre-trial investigation, criminal proceedings and certified copies of court decisions and study of compliance with criminal procedure. A number of problematic issues during the prosecutor's supervision in pre-trial criminal proceedings are outlined, which relate to the relationship between the prosecutor's supervision and judicial control over the legality of investigative (search) actions; subjects and subject of supervision of the prosecutor in this sphere; providing the prosecutor-procedural manager and prosecutors of the highest level with instructions and instructions during the investigative (search) actions. To address these issues, it is proposed to amend the current criminal procedure legislation of Ukraine. The study of the materials of criminal proceedings and the survey of the subjects of criminal proceedings indicate the existence of a number of problematic issues that exist during the implementation of the prosecutor's procedural guidance of investigative (search) actions in the context of human rights.
