The article discusses topical problems of qualification of violations of sanitary and epidemiological rules (Art. 236 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Particular attention is paid to the analysis of judicial practice in the case of such signs as “mass illness or poisoning of people” or “the creation of a threat of the onset of such consequences.” These questions are being updated by the author in connection with the spread and fight against the new coronavirus infection (COVID-19). Possible negative scenarios for the development of the situation with this disease in penitentiary institutions are predicted. It is concluded that responsibility for a violation of sanitary and epidemiological rules, which created a threat of the onset of such consequences, can occur only if this threat is real, when a mass illness or poisoning of people did not occur only as a result of timely adopted by state authorities, local self-government, medical employees and other persons of measures aimed at preventing the spread of the disease (poisoning), or as a result of other circumstances beyond the control of the will of the person who violated these rules.

The article presents a vision of the development of the institution of criminal-legal counteraction to illegal circulation of means of payment, as the most common tool for cashing out funds obtained by criminal means. Attention is drawn to the characteristics of counterfeit and counterfeit payment documents. It is noted that the legal protection authorities equate counterfeit and illegality, despite the fact that the second term is etymologically interpreted much broader. An approach has been substantiated on the advisability of recognizing the creation of fake payment orders not on the basis of the inaccuracy of information that is entered in payment documents and contradictions in relations that occur in reality, but on the basis of distortion of the will of the person who has the authority to dispose of funds.

The article examines criminal acts, with which the law associates certain criminal legal consequences. The aim of the article is to substantiate the identification of various criminal acts and show their specificity in comparison with crimes. The research is based on the domestic criminal legislation, materials of judicial practice and the legislation of the Federal Republic of Germany. The research methods are: the method of comparative law, which allowed comparing the provisions about criminal offenses in the 1960 Criminal Code of the RSFSR and in the 1996 Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and the Criminal Code of Germany; the method of document analysis, which made it possible to analyze the judicial practice and proposals of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation on the introduction of provisions on criminal offences in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation; the formal-logical method that made it possible to analyze the content of the norms of the Criminal Code about criminal acts. The article concludes that, in addition to crimes, criminal acts should include: a criminal offence, which entails criminal liability in the form of replacing punishment with a more severe one (fine, compulsory labor, correctional labor, restriction of freedom as the main type of punishment, forced labor) or criminal liability in the form of the cancellation of any type of probation (suspended sentence, parole, deferred sentence, deferred sentence for drug addicts); a minor act; socially dangerous behavior of persons who are not subjects of a crime due to their minor age or insanity; innocent infliction of harm. The article shows the specificity of a misdemeanour, consisting in the fact that this act is not socially dangerous, does not contain signs of a crime, violates the liability of the convicted person to be subject to limitations arising from the court-appointed punishment or type of probation (suspended sentence, parole, deferred sentence, deferred sentence for drug addicts). It is substantiated that a minor act should be referred to circumstances that exclude the criminality of an act due to the absence of public danger, an essential feature of a crime. It is argued that acts, provided for by the Special Part of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, committed in a state of insanity and entailing compulsory medical measures, should not be subject to criminal law. The article criticizes the judicial practice of a broad interpretation of the commission of a crime by a group of persons, according to which it is not only a co-execution, but also any execution of the objective side of the crime by several persons, of which only one can be the perpetrator. It is argued that causing harm due to the non-compliance of the psychophysiological qualities of a person with the requirements of an extreme situation does not apply to innocent infliction of harm.

The article analyzes some of the controversial, in the opinion of the author, recommendations of the Decree of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation No. 10 of 15.05.2018 «On the practice of the courts applying the provisions of paragraph 6 Article 15 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation». Lowering the category of crime always requires clear criteria by which the actions of the defendant could be qualified with a change in the gravity of the crime. Based on examples from judicial practice, the thesis is substantiated that “taking into account the factual circumstances of the case” and “the degree of its public danger” are evaluative e criteria and do not always allow to decide the validity of the application of part 6 article 15 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The discrepancy between some of the recommendations contained in the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation and the provisions of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is shown. It is concluded that it is impossible to exempt a person from criminal liability on the grounds specified in the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
