Abstract
The relevance of work is due to the presence of legal problems of the institution of criminal case termination, which have accumulated in recent years and the need to develop measures for the legal regulation of this sphere of legal relations. The purpose of work is to study the institute of criminal case termination as an object of legal regulation. The objectives of the study are to identify trends in the development of the institution of criminal case termination, emerging legal contradictions, respect for the rights of participants in the process, as well as developing proposals and recommendations for solving existing problems. We use classical methods of legal research: analysis, synthesis, generalization of law enforcement practice, logic. Based on the analysis of legislation, decisions of higher courts and law enforcement practice, a conclusion is made about the emerging trends in the field of reforming the institution of criminal case termination, primarily related to the realization of the right of persons to rehabilitation. We substantiate the conclusion that the power to terminate the criminal case in the sense of understanding it as a final decision should be entrusted to the court, since in its essence this is its resolution on the merits. We prove the need to reform the institution of criminal case termination, however, the legislator should focus on correcting its contradictions, inaccuracies and existing gaps in order to bring it into line with the norms enshrined in the Constitution of the Russian Federation, the principles proclaimed by it and the purpose of criminal proceedings.
