Comparative legal analysis of simplified procedure in the criminal procedure in Russia and Germany
The article explores the concept of simplified proceedings in criminal procedure in Russia and Germany. The authors conduct a comparative legal analysis of these concepts, which results in an output of the ineffectiveness of a special procedure in the Russian criminal trial. In particular, there are two principles inherent in the simplification of criminal procedure in Germany: the principle of exclusivity and the principle of compensation for the lack of direct examination of evidence in court. The paper shows that these principles do not correspond to the simplification of criminal procedure in the Russian Federation. The authors provide available options for improving domestic special procedure.
