Abstract

Recent intensive lawmaking has led to a set of novelizations, particularly in defining terminology, that do not always comply with the fundamental requirements of legislative technique. Therefore, law-makers face significant challenges, while convicts’ penalties may be influenced by them. The article detects, substantiates, and illustrates examples of specific poor definitions. The authors propose alternative definitions. In addition, the study determines the main features of a definition, identifies common legal errors made while creating definitions, and describes various types of terms with theoretical and practical value for legislative technique. The authors suggest their own view on the approaches to advancing criminal legislation in creating definitions
