The influence of church statutes of the X–XI centuries on the further development of criminal justice in the Russian state is shown, articles of Russian Truth containing elements of modern criminal procedure are analyzed. The authors analyze the articles of the Pskov Court charter devoted to the types of courts and judicial evidence. Russian «Russian Law» has been concluded about the significance of these normative legal acts in the history of criminal procedure law of Ancient Russia, that the «Russian Law» contained norms regulating criminal procedural relations and became the legal basis for the compilation of the Russian Truth. Russian Truth, the key source of the criminal procedure law of Russia in the XI century,
