TO THE QUESTION OF DETERMINING THE JURISDICTION OF CASES ON ADMINISTRATIVE OFFENSES BY JUDGES OF THE GENERAL JURISDICTION COURTS
The article considers the issues of understanding and correlation of jurisdiction and jurisdiction of cases of administrative offenses to judges of courts of general jurisdiction. Based on a systematic analysis of the changes made to the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the author concludes that there are no clear and understandable criteria for determining the jurisdiction of cases of administrative offenses to judges of courts of general jurisdiction. The author argues the position about the need to determine judicial jurisdiction solely on the basis of the sanction criterion. Detailed proposals are made on amendments to the current legislation regarding the delimitation of the jurisdiction of magistrates and judges of district courts to consider cases of administrative offenses.
