The article makes assumptions about the possible consequences of changes made by the Federal Law as of July 20, 2020, No. 224-FZ in edition of the Part 1 of Article 314 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. According to this amendment, criminal cases on grave crimes will now be considered in the general order, unless a pre-trial cooperation agreement is concluded with the accused. The relevance of this novel is due to the fact that the legislator has once again revised the approach to defining the criteria for simplifying the criminal procedural form. In this regard, practice in the near future may face new or, more precisely, well forgotten old problems related to the period of the beginning of the judicial reform in 1991. A number of issues related to ensuring the right of the accused to a special order of trial will require scientific understanding. The author analyzes foreign legislation, previously and current domestic criminal procedure legislation, opinions on this issue of representatives of the highest levels of the judicial system, prosecutor's office and the legal profession, scientists, statistical data and reviews of the activities of courts of general jurisdiction in criminal cases in 2019. The author comes to the conclusion that in Russia the possibility of applying a simplified procedure associated with the reduction or refusal of the judicial investigation was not directly dependent on the severity of the crime committed, and the reform of the special procedure for judicial proceedings undertaken by the legislator is untimely and is not provided with either personnel or material technical or financial resources. According to the author, the decrease in the number of sentences passed in a special order will occur due to the infringement of the right of those accused of serious crimes to be tried in the procedure provided for in Chapter 40 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. In this regard, the article outlines the directions for the further development of a special procedure for judicial proceedings, strengthening its consensual nature and ensuring the guarantees of the rights of the accused and victims in this procedure.

Miscarriage Of Justice

In modern criminal procedure it is generally held that reliability of results and basic fairness in criminal trials require that a defendant have legal counsel. Prevention of miscarriage of justice is tied closely, in the minds of policy makers and judges, with vigorous representation by competent counsel. As against these presuppositions how should one understand a modern system of criminal procedure, such as that in Israel, that does not have a broad right of representation for suspects or defendants in criminal cases?It is by now axiomatic in England and the United States that nearly all defendants in criminal cases have a right to representation. This right encompasses not just the opportunity to bring one's privately retained counsel to court, but also an irrebuttable claim by indigents to have the counsel's bill paid by the state or other public entity. The right to counsel is a broad right, entailing a principle of equality in which representation by counsel is independent of the defendant's ability to pay. In Israel, in contrast, the right to representation in criminal cases is significantly narrower.

The article analyzes the main terms used by law enforcement investigators and editors of the old newspapers regarding to counterfeiters, the forged money, and the process of selling them. Evidence of lexis in relation to counterfeiting has been traced from the criminal cases stored in the state historical archives of Ukraine and Poland, as well as in newspapers periodicals of Ukrainian cities. Most of the sources used in the study are published for the first time. The counterfeiters in Russian empire were called «manufacturer», «counterfeiter», but in Austro-Hungarian – the «counterfeiter» and «deceiver». The process of falsification in the newspapers of Galicia was defined in relation to money, as «made», «fabricated», in the Russian Empire – «cooked», «fabricated» and others. Most often, the definition of a counterfeiter’s personality was referred to as «counterfeiter», «coin counterfeiter», «counterfeiter». The place of counterfeiting was positioned as a «mint», often with the note «secret» or «illegal». In most newspaper publications, organized gangs of counterfeiters were described as а «gang banditti». Linguistic tautology «counterfeiting of counterfeit coins» is oftenly applied to counterfeit manufacturers. In terms of paper money, the definition «paper» and «picture» were used. The Galician press often called the trial of counterfeiters a «massacre». In 1915 in Chernihiv the credit notes signed by cashier S. Brut because of misinformation about their fraud, the population became wary of exchanging such a money, calling it «Brut’s rubles». For flat metal engraved cliches to print counterfeit assignments and credit cards the term «boards» was used, and coin counterfeiting tools are referred to as «counterfeiting machines» or «weapon tools».

The article considers the purpose of criminalistics as an objective science. The author briefly analyzes the definitions of the subject of criminology proposed by scientists in different years. At the same time, the General trend becomes obvious — the monopolization of criminology by law enforcement agencies. With reference to the position of the Patriarch of Russian criminalistics R. S. Belkin, the author expresses his opinion that criminalistics cannot and should not serve only state law enforcement agencies. The results of forensic research can be successfully used in criminal cases by the defense party-lawyers and other representatives of suspects and accused. The article provides examples when abuses by the preliminary investigation bodies with reference to the use of criminalistics provisions led to judicial errors and bringing innocent persons to criminal responsibility. Only in court, when using the evidence presented by the parties to the defense and prosecution, obtained, including through the use of recommendations of forensic science, a criminal case can be fairly resolved.

Miscarriage Of Justice

Investigation of crimes against justice in Ukraine is among topical problems of miscarriage of justice. Hundreds of criminal cases are recorded as a crime in the Official Register in Ukraine but only a few have been brought to the court. In this article we try to approach this problem in three ways: from the point of view of criminal law, criminal procedure and criminalistic measures of counteraction to miscarriage of justice. Such an approach helps to demonstrate problems of investigator, prosecutor and judge at different stages of criminal proceeding. Special attention is paid to specific regulation of the issues of criminal proceedings against a certain category of persons, including judges. Mistakes of representatives of law enforcement bodies become visible as a result of analyzing of real criminal cases. Such an analysis is aimed to disclose the problem of counteraction to miscarriage of justice in Ukraine.

The present study elucidates approaches developed in the juridical science and defining legal practice as a socially significant legal activity of the participants. The authors propose their own social-philosophical and legal justification of legal (administrative) practice as a means of transforming reality. To this end, legal practice is acting as a necessary social, organizational and legal means of improving human activity in the implementation of state and municipal administration. The authors propose a social and philosophical understanding of administrative (state-administrative) practice as the result of state-administrative activities arising in the development of administrative relations and entailing the achievement of socially useful goals of state (municipal) administration in the form of an administrative legal act or repeated organizational act of the body and (or) public administration official (usages of administrative practices). In the course of the research the authors give their own understanding of forms of objectification of administrative practice when state and municipal administration is being carried out. Such forms include empirical non-normative legal act and the usage of administrative practice. The result of the study of the nature and forms of objectification of administrative practice involves the definition of its importance for law enforcement practice, which is mandatory practice for the participants of State and municipal administration when they implement internal State and municipal administration. A mandatory nature of empirical administrative legal acts for administered entities within the framework of external state and municipal administration is mediated insofar as they become participants of administrative legal relations within the framework of which the provisions of these acts are implemented. In other cases, these acts are not mandatory for the administered entities. In addition, an administered entity is not deprived of the right to act in compliance with the provisions of the law or a bylaw rather than in compliance with the provisions of a nonnormative administrative legal act that formally is not a normative legal act, but in fact it of regulatory nature. The study defines the meaning of the usages of administrative activities as one of the forms of objectification of administrative practices.

The paper analyzes the concepts of administrative process presented in legal science. It is stated that every concept of the administrative process has the right to exist, because all of them are based on the facts, phenomena and norms actually existing in the legal system of Ukraine. However, three of them are most thoroughly presented in the legal literature: 1) the concept of a broad understanding of the administrative process; 2) jurisdictional (law enforcement) concept of the administrative process; 3) the concept of a narrow understanding of the administrative process. Representatives of a broad understanding of the administrative process argue that the procedural form is present wherever there is a need to implement substantive rules of administrative law, and all organizational legal relations are inherently procedural relations. Representatives of the jurisdictional and law-enforcement concepts of the administrative process, firstly, are convinced that the procedural form can be inherent only in activities related to the administrative-jurisdictional or law-enforcement activities of the competent authorities, and secondly, that the organizational legal relations are evenly distributed between substantive and procedural relations. Representatives of the concept of narrow definition of the administrative process insist that the procedural form relates solely to the activity of one branch of power - the judiciary, and therefore procedural relations arise only in the sphere of administration of justice by the courts.

The crime of theft with violence is one of the most frequent crimes or criminal acts in the community. It almost happens in every region in Indonesia. They have the tendency to steal when the opportunity is present, then the perpetrators do it with no regard for time. However, in some cases, the theft is done in a certain time. It involves a condition where everyone will look for the right time to carry out their operations. It appears that in fact, we want to realize a handling of child cases. This handling has to pay attention to the needs of children, so that children affected by criminal cases are not harmed physically or mentally. The barriers experienced in law enforcement carried out by children include, legal regulations themselves, facilities and infrastructure, society, and  culture.
