The article deals with the debatable issues of connecting and separating criminal cases in preparation for a court session. Despite the fact that the legislator provided for the possibility of making these decisions, many issues related to their implementation remained unresolved, so it became necessary to determine the grounds and conditions for making a decision to combine and separate criminal cases at a preliminary hearing. The article highlights the problems that arise in connection with the consideration of applications for joining and separating criminal cases. The author formulated conclusions on the settlement of problems arising during the consideration of these issues, and proposed a procedural procedure for their consideration at a preliminary hearing. The article defines the grounds and conditions for consideration at a preliminary hearing of questions about the connection and separation of criminal cases. It is argued that it is possible to consider applications for joining and separating a criminal case only in a closed court session in order to ensure the preservation of evidence obtained during pre-trial proceedings, and the inadmissibility of disclosure of information before the consideration of the criminal case on the merits in the court of first instance.

The functioning of the jury in Russia has demonstrated not only effectiveness, but also a number of problems that need to be resolved. Such problems include the personal jurisdiction of criminal cases by jury.

The approaches to solving this issue that have developed in the judicial practice of individual foreign states are analyzed, the main directions for further scientific discussion regarding the right of minors to a jury trial are outlined. The purpose of the article is to disclose various approaches to the administration of criminal justice in the relations of minors with the participation of lay judges.

Using the comparative legal research method has allowed to reveal various approaches to the access of minors to jury trials in individual states. In Russian legislation and judicial practice the question of the right of minors to have a criminal case against them considered by a jury remains unresolved. The position of the Constitutional Court of Russia regarding the jurisdiction of such criminal cases is also controversial. The experience of foreign countries indicates that there is no universal way to ensure the right of a minor to a proper court. This issue is decided depending on the type of criminal process, the presence or absence of specialized juvenile courts. Any direct borrowing in this regard cannot be considered effective, but a generalization of foreign experience can create the necessary basis for optimizing both the work of the jury and criminal proceedings against minors.

<p align="center"><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong></p><p><em>This article tries to discuss the implementation of e-court in general criminal cases. In fact, Perma Number 1 Year 2019 does not include criminal cases. This is because Perma Number 1 of 2019 only allows general civil, family civil, state administrative, and military administrative matters. However, with the corona virus outbreak making the implementation of criminal cases into an online trial, this has a positive impact in the form of a breakthrough for the litigation world due to the existence of e-court, it can be predicted to decrease costs for the trial, but on the other hand there are weaknesses, namely not yet arranged e court for criminal cases. To find a way out, the authors recommend implementing progressive law to fill the legal vacuum while waiting for a positive law that accommodates the implementation of e-court</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><strong>: </strong><em>E-court, General Criminal Case, Progressive Law</em></p><p align="center"><strong>Abstrak</strong></p><p>Artikel ini mencoba untuk membahas mengenai pelaksaan <em>e-court</em> dalam perkara pidana umum. Sejatinya, dalam Perma Nomor 1 Tahun 2019 tidak mengikutsertakan perkara pidana.

Namun dengan adanya wabah virus korona membuat pelaksaan perkara pidana menjadi sidang secara online, hal ini membawa dampak positif berupa terobosan untuk dunia litigasi dikarenakan dengan adanya <em>e-court</em> maka dapat diprediksikan menurunnya biaya untuk persidangan, namun dilain sisi terdapat kelemahan, yaitu belum diaturnya pelaksanaan <em>e-court</em> untuk perkara pidana.

In the past, the punishment of children was the same as the punishment of adults. This causes the psychological condition of children ranging from investigation, investigation and trial to be disturbed because it is often intimidated by law enforcement agencies. Under these conditions, Law No. 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Justice System was born. One of the reforms in the Child Criminal Justice System Law requires the settlement of a child criminal case by diversion. Based on the results of research that the conception of criminal offenses against children in conflict with the law in Indonesia is different from criminal convictions to adults. Children are given the lightest possible punishment and half of the criminal convictions of adult criminal offenses. That criminal liability for children who are ensnared in a criminal case according to the Law on the Criminal Justice System for Children is still carried out but with different legal sanctions from adults. Criminal imprisonment against children is an ultimumremedium effort, meaning that criminal imprisonment against children is the last legal remedy after there are no other legal remedies that benefit the child. That the concept of enforcement of criminal law against children caught in criminal cases through diversion is in fact not all have applied it. Some criminal cases involving children as the culprit, in court proceedings there are still judges who impose prison sentences on children who are dealing with the law.

The article reveals the nature of the claim of a private prosecution, which establishes the freedom to dispose of material and procedural rights. The forms of manifestation of dispositive principles in the material and procedural aspects in the course of criminal proceedings are determined. Taking into account the nature of the claim of a private prosecution, various models of proceedings in criminal cases of a private prosecution and the peculiarities of the implementation of the provisions of the criminal procedure principle of the presumption of innocence are considered. The author critically assesses the legal constructions that allow the application of a special procedure for making a court decision in criminal proceedings of a private prosecution if the accused agrees with the charge brought. In particular, taking into account the provisions of the principle of the presumption of innocence, it is concluded that it is inadmissible to apply Chapter 40 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation when considering a criminal case of a private prosecution if it is initiated by filing an application directly with a magistrate in the manner prescribed by Art. 318 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation or when investigating a criminal case of this category in the form of an abbreviated inquiry, regulated by Ch. 32.1 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.
