The article examines the issues of initiation of a criminal case that are relevant for criminal proceedings with the participation of jurors. Analyzing the law enforcement practice and the opinions of procedural scholars, the author notes that, as a rule, the reason for the cancellation by the prosecutor of the decisions taken by the investigator based on the results of the pre-investigation check is the incompleteness of its conduct. The conditions under which the pre-investigation check is considered incomplete are disclosed, as well as proposals are made aimed at improving the quality of verification measures at the stage of initiating a criminal case.

The law of criminal procedure contains a number of rules with different content, which raises a number of questions in their interpretation and application. Decisions made using rules with different content lead to their appeal, often to annulment, which does not ensure the achievement of the appointment of criminal proceedings, but leads to unjustified red tape in criminal proceedings and the delay in making final decisions on them. The need to harmonize criminal procedure rules is related to ensuring high-quality and effective criminal proceedings, ensuring the protection of the rights of participants in criminal proceedings, the quality of the evidence process, both in pre-trial and judicial proceedings. The article addresses the problems of unification of criminal procedure rules containing such concepts as an investigator and urgent investigative actions. It is proposed to eliminate the contradictions in them in order to ensure their uniform application. The introduction of a single concept of investigator and refusal to use the profession of "forensic investigator" in this concept is justified, it is proposed to expand the number of participants who have the right to carry out urgent investigative actions, as well as to assign to them investigative actions carried out at the stage of initiating a criminal case.

Pre-trial proceedings in criminal cases against minors are conducted according to general rules established by law. At the same time, international statutes set out special requirements aimed at the comprehensive protection of the rights and lawful interests of the above-mentioned category of people. Their comparison allowed the authors to identify a number of discrepancies and draw conclusions regarding the key aspects of improving Russian criminal procedure legislation regulating the pre-trial proceedings against minors. Pre-trial investigation against minors should only be conducted in the form of preliminary inquiry. Besides, all of its stages should provide conditions for the correction of juvenile delinquents, including the stage of pre-trial investigation. Organizations working outside the scope of criminal proceedings, including NGOs and human rights groups, should work with minors and correct their behavior irrespective of the process and results of pre-trial investigation and court proceedings. The law should include the provision for the confidentiality of information about the underage suspect and accused. In particular, the law should state that no information regarding the underage suspect or accused can be made public, even if this information will in the future result in court proceedings during a closed hearing. Before the case is referred to the court, the investigator or detective should decide if it is possible to terminate the criminal case (criminal prosecution) against the accused minor. Besides, the criminal case (criminal prosecution) can be terminated both on special grounds if coercive measures are taken against such a person, or on other grounds stated by law and applicable to adults.

The paper discusses the issues of choosing the most effective model of criminal proceedings termination, analyzes the proposed in the scientific literature model of refusal of the discretion of the law enforcement officer when making an appropriate procedural decision. The author, based on the practice of the European Court of Human Rights, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation and the decisions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, studies the relationship between the principle of justice and the legality of procedural decisions to terminate a criminal case and criminal prosecution. The author concludes that the discretionary model of legal regulation of a criminal case and criminal prosecution termination is an effective means of achieving the purpose of criminal proceedings, allowing the law enforcement officer to make a fair decision, given the nature, degree of social danger of the crime, the circumstances of its commission, information about the identity of the person who committed the crime. Refusal of the discretion of the law enforcement officer in the matter of terminating a criminal case will not only not contribute to the humanization of legislation, but will mark the victory of formalism over justice in criminal proceedings.

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 article reveals the legal positions of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation regarding the right of minors to trial a criminal case in a 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. The theoretical basis of the study was Russian and foreign scientific works in the field of criminal procedure law, devoted both to the consideration of criminal cases with the jury, and the specifics of juvenile criminal proceedings. 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.
